I sensing a lot of hate in this forum. When somebody says they would have gotten a gsr instead of a type r I would say whatever not b***h the s**t out of him, but whatever. I would have gotten the gsr and put the remaining money I had into the motor. If you spent $12,000 on a motor alone, then you have way too much money for your own good. If you spend $4,000 on a motor then $8,000 on mods for the motor then thats more like it.
Tell you what, give me the same amount of money you spent on your motor alone and we will see who is faster in the quarter mile. I will have my built gsr and you will have your stock type r.
I do have have to give you props on the type r, love it, no matter how much it costs. It is a thing of beauty.
One more thing that bugs me, just b/c some one drives an EX doesn't mean they don't know what they are talking about, it just means they don't have the money to buy an si or a type r. So don't back talk a guy just because he drives an EX.
