Integra - type R engine
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has ever tried to put an acura integra type R engine into a regular integra. I was thinking of doing this but I am not really sure if it would work well. Please inform me of any problems that I may have and also if it is not too bad of a thing to do I need to know somewhere that I could either swap for one and also where to get it installed (too big of a job for just me)
Thanks a lot
peace

THATS A GOOD POINT THAT AN LS WITH TURBO IS JUST AS GOOD OR EVEN BETTER THAN THE TYPE R BUT WHAT ABOUT PUTTING A TURBO IN THE TYPE R ENGINE THAT I WANT TO GET AND BUILDING IT UP TOO, (THIS IS WHAT I WAS PLANNING TO DO) ---SOUNDS GOOD OR BAD????

Yes it works. The GSR in particular is easy to Ratize. The LS, GS, RS, & SE are without Vtec so you'd need to do some work, but it's definately do-able. If you get a GSR though, I don't think there's much value in getting an entire B18C5 engine swap. I'd much rather build the B18C1 in it.

Re: Integra - type R engine (NyteTyme2002)
I'll tell you this before someone comes in here and starts flaming all over you. Everyone would probaly tell you that it's not worth it, 4800 is alot u rather find yourself a gsr and built it up and it'll beat the type r with the amount to invest in it. gsr(around 3300) so u have 1500. hell you could put that towards builting ur tranny up jdm type r final drive, lighten flywheel, clutch, etc.
If you have an LS or b18b1 people are going to say go turbo or ls/vtec.
I can't lie the type r(b18c5) is a really good motor with alot of potential, but i just hope that you are going to spend alot of money on it or it's a complete waste. If i have the money I'd do it.

Since he mentioned it. 
Turbo IS the way I'd go. For around the same cost of that B18C5 transplant you could look for a turbo setup that'd almost certainly yeild better results.
