<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by _BEN_ &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Type R as oem Type R header?
That won't bolt up to a LS head. </TD></TR></TABLE>

umm, yes it will. exhaust manifold bolt patterns are the same for all b-series. you're probably thinking of intake manifolds... they dont swap between P74/5, P72, and P30 heads

To keep your A/C, you'll need the P54 AC bracket from a DOHC del sol.

The header/cat fitment will depend on what exhaust you're running. It's best to buy the header, then buy an exhaust for your body (95 EX coupe/sedan would be fine). Then get a custom cat fabbed up to the correct length.

Yea and CHILL WITH THE CAPS

the point is not to fab any thing.i want straight bolt in.i need to keep car legal.cops out here will randomly pull people over and send them through inspection.so i want to stay as close to oem as possible.

custom cats "bolt in" also if you have flanges made on both ends.

seeing as there is no OEM b18b 92-95 sedan that came with a type-r header, there is no STOCK cat that is guaranteed to fit. the best thing to do is to NOT WASTE your $$ trying to buy a cat that MIGHT fit. just do it once and buy a custom cat made to order. http://www.hybridgarge.com makes cats to order to mate JDM headers to civic exhaust. Just measure the gap, tell them the length, and BOOM, you'll have a cat that fits
