Get a B18C5 intake manifold instead

like others said, the gsr manifold will not bolt up. just stick with the b16 manifold or look into an AEBS intake manifold. they are usually cheaper than the b18c5, like around $130. only problem is the castings are a little rough on the inside. really though, you won't see the full potential of an aftermarket IM unless you have cams and timing or turbo.
