And stop comparing with hondas they have nothing on mazdas and a lot of honda owners respect mazda engines and know better than to race a rotary. If u want to be spoon fed parts then u ain't original. b creative. ;)

Its not always about raw horsepower either. Power to weight is way more important.

If youre racing, the best indicator of which car is faster is the 0-60 & 1/4 mile times and the GS is slower than the base Integra in both.

These times have been tested under the same conditions over and over again and the mean is taken for an average timing.

sorry but i would have to agree, a stock mx-3 does like high-mid 7's 0-60. At least mine did, and i have an auto.

Those times are usually on streets, and the cars arent launched hard. They are also test cars that are not taken care of, and just have reporter after reporter flog them. Magizine times are SLOWER than what you can really do, in MOST cases.
