Well, a GSR intake manifold will not fit a B16 head. Since an ITR head and B16 head are practically identical, if you want to swap intake manifolds, you'd have to go ITR. The ITR intake manifold is much better than the B16. It has a larger plenum and shorter runners. And it fits perfectly. You can also swap cams too.

^^werrd. the type-r and B16 castings are same. but i believe a GSR throttle body will fit on b16 manifolds. and gsr crank will work.
