It could be a type r mainifold. They could have cut the flange off on it and put a gsr flange on...thats use to be the big thing to do before Skunk came out with there manifold.

It will say B18C5 on the block. GSR's will say B18C1. Also, if it is a C5 it should have a red valve cover, although anyone can throw one on a B18C1. The best bet is to look at the block for the B18C5 stamp. If it is good condition I wouldn't care what type of IM is on. I would throw on a Skunk2 anyhoo.

jdm b18c spec r's will not have the 5 on them, thats a USDM thing... look at the head stamp inbetween the dist and the exh cam, on the top there should be a number stamp 30 = p30 or b16/ITR head 72 = p72 or GSR head... that will indentify the head, possible that it is a b18c spec R motor, hence the different intake manifold...
