it's one of those cars that you have to know how to drive to make it "quick." the gts isn't any faster than the gt until youget into the peak powerband, like the civic si. which is why you hear all these stories of si's getting beat by ex's with i/h/e and other bolt ons an teg ls's...the si should be faster but people can't drive so they make it slow. ive seen stock si's run 15.3's at the track, and ive seen them run 16.5's...it all depends on the driver.
so true. if you dont know how to drive you could lose to a d series civic in this car, but if you can land the car in lift then its amazing.

The real question is how come you sold the integra ... .
the frame was f**ked, the front end was aftermarket and didnt fit properly, look like complete s**t, it leaked coolant, the tranny was going, needed new axle shafts, rust was developing on the rear 1/4 panels i told all of this to the current owner before he bought it and tried to let him know what he was getting into, but he was convinced he could handle it, to this day he gets on aim and bitches at me about how i sold him a lemon.

i remember one time whena celica gts just completly exploded on me.. I was on the highway and he made me look like i was standing still.
ya, they have this vvt-i l, variable valve timiing with intelligence and lift, basically, the "lift" acts like vtec, these cars kick ASS on higher rpm's.
