My biggest concern with the chip/ engine swap is exactly future motor issues down the road. I dunno if this is your first Acura/Honda, but they are very feeble cars when it comes to modding. Easy to mod, but shitty because some people mod the Honda's where they just implode. In HS through my 2 year in college I was in a Honda/Acura car club where we saw alot of issues coming from used modded cars. The engine/chip swap was a huge issue in future engine problems and it drove us crazy sometimes that we'd have to do complete engine swaps again.

    If you want to check the engine the GSR engine is a DOHC VTEC where as the LS is a standard DOHC. The GSR has dual intake, but the LS engine doesn't. Keep in mind the fastest engine is the Type-R which I doubt you have, the GSR is the slowest engine I believe of the VTECs now.

    He should swap an h22 or k20 in it.

    Edit: Fastest car I've been in. Doing 140 in a 30mph street in Puerto Rico.
    This is my cousins Supra Turbo. Wish I had focused on the speedometer.

    I've been 161 in a 1992 Nissan 300zx Twin Turbo. Not my car BTW.

    If you want a Japanese car then get a Nissan, Mazda, Honda, or Subaru IMO.

    In Japan the rsx was the Honda Integra.
