4grand To drop into Engine: What to do?!
Alright heres what I got and what I need...You help me decide the setup!
I have a 1992 Integra GSR Painted R-33 Skyline azure blue with r33 front kit and carbon fiber invader hood riding on gunmetal rims. But who cares about how it looks.
Items I own
-B17a1 Block and B18c1 Block (Which should I use?)
-B18c1 Head and B18c1 Head (Which should I use?)
-Gsr Hydrolic transmission
with the 4k should I go turbo? resleeved block and port and polish?
Or should I go with an ITB setup? And how can I build them both to the fullest with the cash I got?
NOTE: IF turbo, I need to run all custom piping for a 92 teg.
Thanks guys! Just hoping a serious tuner will read this post and steer me in the right direction. Also who is the best honda machinest in the New England area?

Sell your current motor. Buy the B18C5 long block that Len has for sale.
Sell your GSR tranny get a ITR tranny with Cusco 5.0 final drive. Then get a decent header and exhaust and you'll be set. You might even have money left over.

$4000 could get you a VERY nice turbo setup. I dont think it will get you a turbo and wheels and suspension all that jazz. You could spend $1000 on basic i/h/e and then do cool wheels and a bad-*** suspension..........its all personal taste.
we did a b17 all motor set-up (budget) on a 93 gs-r
ctr pistons, shot peened rods, skunk2 stage 2 cams with valvetrain
lightened flywheel, exedy clutch and aem intake
stock header, stock exhaust, stock intake manifold, stock fuel system
car weighed in at 2640 with driver and ran a 13.9
on another note. drag makes a turbo kit for 90-93 integras

use the geezer it makes more powa. Then send it to Ericks since he obviuosly must know a thing or to about building GSR engines.
Alot of people make comments based on faulty info but a guy who runs a fastest in class all motor time actually knows the right answer.

sell the b17a1 block since you have a b18c1. sell the extra b18c1 head(s) and the hydro tranny because that won't work in your 92 gsr. with the 4g i think you should go with a turbo setup and work on a good exhaust setup. with whatever money left over build your block for the turbo setup and worry about the head a little later. but thats only my opinion
If you plan it out right..You could sell the b17 and keep the b18c1 and use the money towards a nice turbo kit with some hondata and accesories(i.e. injectors, fuel pump)..Or sell the b18c1 and boost the b17...The b17 makes a very nice motor for turbo...cylinder walls are thicker and handle more boost..
