94 Integra Vtir Or Skyline Gtst?


Recommended Posts

the car is gonna be used as a daily, just something that looks good and goes ok enough lol. no track work at all. i like the R33 coz i've always loved the tough look and the street rep its got, i like the civic coz its pretty uncommon, high reving and nice.

thanks for that mate it does kinda help.

the thing is, my cousin in law has 2 cars that he's selling, a 94 R33 GTS4 auto NA and a 2000 model honda civic VTiR 2 door coupe. now i'm not allowed to get a turbo yet. now if i get the civic i'm afraid of people calling it "ricer" and shit :) coz it is kitted, etc. but i also would'nt mind keeping the NA R33 till i'm off my Ps so basically this is why i'm full of questions lol

thanks

I would go the Civic VTiR over an R33 GTS4 auto NA (provided the Civic bodykit isn't too extreme). The weight of four wheel drive and automatic would dull the performance of the RB25DE considerably IMO - A manual Civic VTiR might actually even be faster in a straight line! (But if so, not by much...)

it allways cracks me up watching nissan fans bash honda :) honda have made cars that no nissan ever built (stock) could touch.

Dunno about every one else, but I'm pretty sure an R34 GTR N1 or NUR could keep up with anything (on 4 wheels) honda can throw at them...

Get a Vti-R and turbo it if you 'must' have a turbo. The VTi-R will be very reliable, and will go very well too. My brother had a VTi-R civic Coupe. 118kw and it was awsome (smacked down rb25de) skylines no problem. He later turbo'd it.. and let me tell you, no rb25det skyline was comming anywhere near it.. haha!!! The car has since sold and so has the turbo kit, and the new owner achieved 185fwkw and has since ran a 12.5 on semi-slicks down the 1/4. Pretty impressive if you ask me. Thats another option you can take if you wish.

Yeah, I know I wouldn't take my Skyline near something that at any minute could torque steer violently across 6 lanes of traffic and end up in someones living room...

I dont reckon there was any real Honda bashing there. In fact, I said I would go the VTiR over the skyline a few posts back, and I respect a few Honda's out there for sure.

The original comment got a reaction from me because of its speciffic wording:

honda have made cars that no nissan ever built (stock) could touch.

That comment seems a bit strong to me. To say that no Nissan can touch them is rediculous! In each key rivalry (Silvia vs Ingegra, S2000 vs 350Z, NSX vs GTR, etc), each car has its pro's and con's, and there is no quantifiable evidence of one car being better than the other. One might do something better than the other, but fall down in other areas.

And in regards to my torque steering comment - it was obviously a joke.

hondas are nice cars no doubt about that but as for turbo charging them and modifying to get some real power out of the things if you spent the same amount of cash on a skyline ud pull out much bigger power... its stupid to compare the two though and as for hondas vs nissan "(stock)" its pretty rediculous to even try and say that a modified nsx would go harder then a gtr...

Get a honda prelude! they're a little cheaper than the integras and go very hard round the corners. and you get VTEC yo.

NSX-R is quicker than an R34 GTR but the margine is so close that its all up to the driver really :D

o yea and your s2000 can't even touch our 350z LOL ..

2L 4cly 'vs' 3.5L V6...? The S2000 is still the better car. What that s2000 engine does stock is nothing short of amazing. If I had $80k floating about, Id be going the S2000 over almost any other car in that price range any day.

Stock for stock the NSXs are quicker around a track and in a straight line than the GTRs - at least on average in the tests I have seen done by mad Japanese. The Nismo Z-Tune throws all that out, but theres no shame in an NA 3.2l RWD being slower than a GT500 car that got tricked into being a road car.

VTiR vs. turbo Skyline, the Turbo Skyline ftw. However, Type-R vs. turbo Skyline - in a straight line turbo Skyline ftw, around corners I tend towards the Type-R.

Fun for dollar spent, probably the Type-R - especially the way fuel prices are going.

    • Agreed with the rest. Also at least based on my own research, there are no readily available stock or close-to-stock RB20Neo maps that you could download and use as a base were you to buy a complete standalone ECU, and the regular 20DET maps don't really work well so you'd need to take it to a tuner if you have no experience. I installed an AEM V2 on my 20Neo+T and had lots of headaches until I got it to run and idle properly but I've yet to remap it fully. You have to start building up your timing and fuel maps entirely from the ground up; even the ones for a 25 didn't work at all.
    • Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.
    • That's some good input mate. Nice.
    • So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.
    • Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on
