i know u guys might think this is a repost but i'm been searching everything i can't find it.

i'm trying to find if there is a different between the JDM b18c5 and the JDM b18c1 blocks, i have a car with a jdm B18C, it might have a type r manifold but is there any other way to tell from the block?

i have a pic of it but not the block just the top of it so if u wanna check out the throttle cable location if that means anythign because i herd it's different?

 

Blocks are identical, besides the stamp.

There is no JDM b18c5, or JDM b18c1.

 

ya i know but how am i going to know if it's type r or not!
i might be buying a a civic with either a gsr or type r, at first it was thgouh ti was a gsr motor but then after someone who knows more then me, checked it out and said it was a type r b/c it has the intake manifold, on the block it has the regualr b18c, there is no tranny, come on guys i need something, anything what u guys got?

 

Intake manifold and LSD stamp on the tranny.

****** stupid block!!!why can't they just put a 1 or a 5, it's got the r intake manifold but i dont think it's got the LSD, which means i got 1 of both!!and i can't take apart the engine to look at the pistonss!!!LOL!!!!
anyone else?

 

On the head of a type r right behind the dist. there is a stamp that say P30, cause the type r head is a port and polished b16a head.

 

i also believe that all type r heads has green paint close to the dizzy

 

Some JDM GSR (SIR-G or whatever it's called) also had LSD as well...so that stamping might not dictate what engine it is.

Without pulling it apart, I'd check the head stamping (P72 = GSR) and intake manifold.

 

you might be able to tell by the oil cooler. now that I think about, other JDM motors may have the oil cooler also.

 

besides the stamp the block itself shows no apparent differentce, maybe pulled apart but....... not sure otherwise

 

well if it has a type r manifold its either a type r or a pos gsr with b16 head, does vtec crack hard or is it ***** b16 style?

Stupid post
...
I think the user has plenty of info to figure it out now. Good luck.

 

thx for all the posts, i'm suppose to see the engine tonight, i'll get back to u see what i come out with, oh ya wats a dist.?

 

A JDM B18C GSR motor will have P72 stamped on the head. A JDM ITR motor will have P30-1 stamped on the head. If its a JDM GSR motor, an ITR inlet manifold will not bolt to it, and i'm sure you know what a GSR I/M looks like!

Dude, you're a moron. VTEC crack hard?!?! ***** B16?!?!? If anything, the VTAAAK on a gsr motor is fairly noticable because of the gay *** manifold it comes with. The B16 screams because it comes with a similar ITR manifold. I think you already recieved enough info. to learn how to tell the difference. You should go check the motor, and just let it be, and stop making yourself look like a complete dumbass.

i bought a jdm itr motor from steve at HMO and he said you can tell if its jdm if is say b18c21xxxxx for a 98+ and b18c16xxxxx for a 96-97 jdm itr. so if its not one of those, its not a gsr. hope that helps
