Unless you are building it...Just stick with the gsr...Ps. Honda engines do not have the capability of calling someone. Vtech is a phone.

yeah they are way to hard to find, clealry get the b18c.

Your new to this as can be deduced from your questions. The LS/VTEC will be a lil too difficult for a first timer imho
