Well inferno here we go again. Yes, and Integra Type R will hang with a SN95 Mustang GT stone stock for stock. It will not hang with a Fox GT. Any Mustang 5.0 with a stick from 1987-1993 WILL beat an Integra Type R hands down. With simple freebies, they will whoop a Type R. With the same freebies an SN95 5.0 will also beat a Type R hands down, no problems.
You say the Integra handles better than a Mustang GT. That is totally false. Have you read the article in SCC where they got an ego, and they decided to pit the Type R vs the new GT. Dispite having no idea how to drive a V-8 musclecar they were unable to get the Type R to beat the 'Stang on a road course. In fact on the regular road course the stang handed the Type R it's *** . Then they went to a very tight course and were unable to beat the stang by more than 1/2 a second. Their times in the quarter show that they could have gotten a full 3-4 tenths quicker in the stock GT. They have no idea how to drive it, yet it still whoops the car they do know how to drive.
Let's get real. The Integra Type R is an overpriced, underpowered, pathetic attempt to compete with a Mustang. Oh but it does get pretty good gas mileage for a high powered rice burner.
