I have a 1995 integra ls im looking to squeeze a little more power out of. I was thinking about putting a vtec head on it. Now, is a gsr engine just an ls with a vtec head? Also, is ls/vtec putting on a gsr head, or a b16a head, cause i heard you can do both. And i was wondering if anyone has ever done either setup? I have also heard alot of mixed results across many forums on the reliability of these swaps. Also, wouldn't putting a b16a head onto my ls make it have higher compression? thanks in advance for all your help.

 

also, can someone tell me when i can post in other fourms? says i can't in the classifieds.

 

welcome to the boards. please learn how to search (a link in the top right set of links). these questions have been answered a plethora of times

 

try search for ls/vtec, i can't use anything with 2 letters. I really did try searching. Also, search gets alot of untrue facts, as people seem to just throw info out they hear from friends. i would like to hear from someone whose experieneced it.

 

Search more. There are at least 5 threads about this going on.

 

Man i see this topic a lot of times like every week.. about setting up ls/vtec if u really want it do it and find out... or click the search link.. there some topic there that really tells you step by step ls/vtec set ups...

 

VTECH YaO!

LOL!

 

hey i found some things under vtec head swap. It just took me some time to get the search to work, as it was working me like a little bitch. thanks guys.

 

also, how long am i a trial member, im getting rather angry because i can only post in 10% of the forums.

 

10 days i believe?

GSR's do not use LS (b18B) bottom ends. LS/VTEC is when you take any of the B series VTEC heads and mate it with a b18a or b18b bottom end. The process is not as straight forward as it seems, some machine work needs to be done. By mating a VTEC head to the LS bottom end you do increase the compression ratio a bit.. but if you wanted even more compression you can put high compression pistons in. IMO reliabilty on these motors tends not to be so great.. BUT there are people with these motor set ups who have had good reliability.. it all comes down to how much time and money you invest in building it properly.

and also in your sig, it says your looking to get into a turbo, if thats the case then why the hell would you waste your $ on a ls/vtec swap? put that $ in a FI system and call it a day. you will have to lower the compression anyway if you go ls/vtec. the low compression is already there

 

change my screen name? you don't like me? i don't give a **** you fairy, so **** off. I don't need, or want to hear your fagget *** again. And if you would learn how to read, before you even posted, i said i got it, moron. I feel sorry for you. I bet you go through the forums looking for people to flame. Whats the matter? daddy molest you to much as a kid?

 

also, i can say whatever the **** i want to in my sig, i have 3 cars, so **** off. And who dosen't explore different ideas, i can choose either way i please for any car. Being i am new i was having trouble with the search, i said that, and also said i got it to work. Your rude comments are completely irrelavent and unneeded.

 

 

If you don't care if he likes your screen name, then why did you change it?

 

with a new screen name i can only post 5 in a day. i had to make a new one just to finish the conversation

 

so he could reply.. trial users are allowed 5 posts per day.. BTW i think that DOHC VTEC EATER did not have to make those rude comments.. 95 LS is a new user.. no need to flame him .. we all started from somewhere

 

same as asking whats the difference between day and night...

 

the biggest difference between a LS and a GSR, is that the GSR can lock the post because it's become one filled with bullshit
