Default countination of ls cannot be a type-r thread

some of u guyz say that a type-r can never be made from an ls but if u think about it (do it u wannabees) the itr is only a specail high performance (like that goes with honda right?) of the integra so u infact still have an intgra think about it that way? also a user named padawan said this

How about concentrating on creating a high-performance LS instead? Putting ITR parts on a car isn't going to make it a Type R - not even the number plaque.


niether is throwing jdm parts on a usdm motor niether is doing a firewall exchange like e.honda did its all about looks guyz not how much u have in money i will contnuie this project and build a low budget itr while i will document it in the integra forum where i will invite u to continue this argument or give me comments because it can be done (other cars i have done are malibu into chevelle conversions)

What????

The ITR does have a structurial differences from an LS. So no matter how much you swap parts over it will still never be a true ITR.

Edit: I just re read your post and I am now even more confused as to what you are trying to say.

You can create a high performance ls head. The only downside is not having the seperate cam profiles to make daily driving easier.

i guess you can build an LS thats close to an ITR. but after engine, suspension, interior, exterior and countless other things, why do you wanna do it?

whahuh? the the rs is closer in relationship with the typeR since they have the same chassis's. the typeR is a RS chassis with structural re-enforcements(seam welded, flex bars etc).


the one thing that makes a rs,ls,gs, gsr not a typeR is the vin number...

If your VIN does not start with DC231, you don't have an ITR. End of story.

Similarly, a LS is not a GSR if a GSR engine is swapped into it. Its VIN still starts with DC4.

What's so hard to understand?

This would be deleted in the ITR forum.

hahaha, that's good.

To the OP: first of all, learn to spell. Secondly, we cant argue with you when none of us here understand what you're saying.

Can a LS be converted to a ITR? Not really.

Can a LS be just as good as a ITR? Sure, why not.

Is that the point you're trying to make? If not....What is your point?

I'd rather drop 8k on downpayment for evo than attempt to build an LS motor

No, you're going to build a low-budget LS that resembles a Type R. I'm not sure what point you're missing here, or why you felt the need to post a quote that I continue to stand behind.
