haha yea well my integra's stock sus was good. the sus in the rx was stil stock when I boutht it! so now I've got eibach springs kyb agx adjustables, and some poly bushings. the handling is getting better, but we'll see. just there is a corner here on hwy 26 east to hwy 217 south (for the locals) well I could take it at 78 in my integra, but my rx was crap at 59 maybe 60. trust me the sus is much better now, but the at the limit handling is still iffy. corner speeds are much higher!! I'm sure I could go through that corner much faster now, but it's the attitude at the limit that I'm concerned about. my integra; I could hit that corner doing over at 100 slam the brakes then corner at speed just enough to transfer the weight, slightly lift the throttle then instantly right back on. the integra would slide the whole thing. I could even play with the angle of slide with the throttle. I don't know about the rex cause of that rear end corner oversteer thing. I don't like how it can snap the rear, if you balance on that certain G load. do you know what I'm talking about? some owners have removed it. I'm looking to do the same.

sorry transfer the weight was the wrong wording. I meant something like once all the weight is transfered (full cornering load) then blip the throttle. it was just a nice car that would do anything I asked! my rx will do it eventually I just have to feed it a lot more parts!! sorry these r just my experiences with the two cars. my view can still change. in the speed vision touring cars the integras used to dominate. early on there were rx's running... but they were in the back. integras R great cars!! even if a **** ton of people like to destroy it's true abilities. hondas were known for autocrossing before drag!! the h is for handling not horsepower!! sorry if you don't agree.
