yes the itr head will fit the gsr block. And NO the stock gsr intake manifold will not work on the itr head.

Better flow, your compression will go down slightly.

yes you can use a itr head and the im bolt patterns are different for both heads
the itr head will lower compression by .2 which will make a stock gsr 9.8 cr
itr head has
factory port & polish for more air flow
15% lighter intake valfes for the ability to rex higher
more agressive cams
dual valve springs on the exhaust side, intake springs are same
better single runner im for worst bottom end and better top end
and a 62mm tb appose to the stock gsr 58mm tb

or just use the itr manifold, because the s2 is merely a copy of it.

Type R head will work on GSR block and will lower compression by .2 points.
Better thing to do for all-motor is match port and polish the GSR head then swap the type R valve train over, use chipped OBD-1 ECU and enjoy higher compression. Type R has lighter intake valves and color-coded intake and
exhaust valve springs. GSR intake valve springs are same as type R exhaust, though. Only difference in the bottom end is pistons and lighter and more balanced rods and crank for higher revving. Since, I'm having tuning problems
with my hybrid, I can not say enough (and it was recommended) to get access
to a wideband air-fuel measuring tool and vtec-controller. Also, for reliability,
it'll probably be a good idea to get good bearings and bolts (ARP) while you're in there. Sorry for the long post.
