what would a 96 hatch run around in the quarter witha gsr motor?

why dont you go with H22 if you want to drag race?
i dont know about the 1/4 time of 18C.. but its a fast enough track car.. imo

babiebottle96

i was under the impression that an h22 swap is really hard to do, and that the b18c swap would be alot easier and less expensive

With numerous companies offering custom mount & axle kits so readily available nowadays, the H22 isn't as hard a swap as it used to be...but that stuff adds up $$$
Definitely faster than a GSR though, 30 more of both hp & torque...

i had a bone stock gsr in my 98 ek with just an intake 14.7 at 93mph

babiebottle96

ahhh, i c, well tahts fast enough, how much did the swap cost you all said and done. i am gonna pick up the motor for about 3200, after that how much more do you think?

Yeung

other than the complete swap..
you still have to get new clutch, timing belt.. and some other little stuff.. and also labor if you are not doing it yourself..
so i say probably around 1k.. maybe more

klungemonger

Well, depends also on how many miles the swap has on it...you may not need to do the t-belt and clutch for a while, although if you can afford it that might be a security measure...make sure it works before installing it all, otherwise it's tough to do once in the car.

Yeung

it is almost a standard procedure to replace the clutch and timing belt when doing the swap.. its is much easier and cheaper to do it while the engine is outside the car

klungemonger

True, a stock clutch is about $100 and with the engine on the ground can be done in 30 minutes or so. Getting a crank pulley bolt off isn't easy anytime though!
