I find it really interesting they got such low testing numbers out of the R. When they reviewed the 94 GSR sedan, they squeezed out something like a 14.9 in the quarter. I want to say a 6.x something for 0-60 too. I know a whole lot of this depends on the driver, just find it interesting though.

I had two coupe GSRs and two NA1 NSXs. I could never get the GSR to go faster than 7.6 seconds from 0-60 on the G Tech meter. NSXs were around 5.7 seconds 0-60. My friend's Z32 TT is 5.5 seconds from 0-60. At that time the king off the line was the 3000GT VR4. Couple of my friend had those and some were tuned. It would always win off the line because of the AWD. Even a slightly tuned Supra can't beat a stock 3000GT VR4 off the line. The downside of the 3000GT VR4 is its weight. It is almost 3800 lbs. Honda didn't build these cars to go drag racing though. They are really built to go around corners. Couple of my friends also had the FD3S RX7. It was always broken down or burning excessive oil. This was the late 90s when these cars were relatively affordable, because not many people knew about them. Internet was just in its infant days. People were still looking through paperback Auto Trader classifieds.

The Integra Type R fully broken in was capable of 6.4 0-60 and 14.5 in the quarter, surprisingly the 1st generation Toyota FR-S and BRZ achieved those numbers but we call them slow!!! The NSX on the other hand was a supercar, albeit with the huge $88,000 price tag, in todays money that is $130,000, yikes.

@@yume8380 you can also noticed that todays car becomes more heavier due to safety regulations and back then a bellow 1000KG considered as Light weight car but in todays standards the bellow 1300KG was the light weight and the 1000KG was the ultra light weight... and because of the safety equipement most of the performance (with the exception of the new GR86 and BRZ) had to become Turbo...!!! different era means different standards but I dont mind the change tho I will gonna miss internal combustion engine cars when they were replaced by EV cars...!!!

I own a Honda Civic EK9 and that car donth have sound deadening to save weight... too bad the engine was blown and I am still waiting for new B16 engine to come for 3 years now... the reason why it was still taking too much time because of RX-7 FC3S and my recent new car a 91 NSX that I am modding to be a 05 NSX-R replica...!!!
