Default Swapping a gsr

Hey guys, I might be able to get a complete gsr engine in good condition for hella cheap, you think i'll have any problems dropping it in my 95 LS, and my other question is I live in Cali where they are bitches about smog and stuff. Do I have to go see a special ref or anything to get my **** approved or do they even care?

this is going into ur integra right? I'd doubt that any smog station/cop would be like, "Hey...this integra is a LS...it's a non-vtec".

If you do plan on taking it to the ref...the rules are the engine must be the same year or newer and all smog equipment must be hooked up properly. When I get my h22 swap....imma play it save and get it approved. good luck.

It should be plug and play. It's so much easier having the same year engine as the car.

i really seriously doubt the average smog guy will check if ur car is a LS or a GS-R...but yes to be LEGAL u must take it to a smog ref to get a BAR sticker...the swap should be all cherry!

Just a thought...why not get the gsr engine...sell ur car..and get a 92-95 hatchback. It'll be quicker than if it were swapped into ur integra.
