I have a 02 dc5r and my brother owns a 200sx spec r. I must say the gearshift and steering in the integra is much much more precise. Whilst both cars are the same age, the silvia is a little older in terms of the age of the model And it definately shows it ( especially interior wise). Whilst I really like the low seating position of the silvia, I find the integra much more comfortable to drive. The silvia feels like it rides much harder In the rear. All in all both are excellent cars, I did find though that the silvia is a little much in the wet as a daily, with the tail being extremely touchy.

Stock for stock both cars are so close comparison straight line wise it's a non issue. So for me, the newer feeling of the integra and it's better driveability as a daily tip it in favour. And the far cheaper insurance premium, almost 900 annually difference (as a 23 yr old) certainly helps!
