How much more work would a B18c (w/ LSD) be as apposed to a B16a (w/ LSD) for a 89 CRX DX? Is it worth it for the extra 20HP? /

 

yes, it is worth the extra hp

 

Can't go wrong with either of them, a b18c would be nice; you'll most likely find a b16a for cheaper though. I have a non-lsd b16a in my sedan and it pulls hard. Good luck on the swap.

 

13.5 on street tires stock b18c1 with quaife lsd in usdm gsr swap. How many people can say they ran that with a stock engine with bolt ons? Im sure there are a few b16s but not many.

Thanks, I think I will go with the b18c1, I know this is a stupid question but what are all the vehicals this engine can be found in?

 

Integra GSR

 

oops, I saw the GSR part after, that was stupid of me haha... Umm another stupid question (sorry, I am not good an searching for this information) but besides the engine block itself what else would I need to get from the GSR? (ECU, Transmition, axles exc...)
and can anybody please post me a link on how to do the swap? ty

 

this is a good place to get you stuff

well I was actually going to go to the junkyard and fish the engine out of one myself for about $150 there is alot of Integras running around. so thats why I wanted to know if I just needed the engine or if I needed to pull anything else out of it aswell

 

If your going to run a B18C in your crx you need a number of things to do this swap. 1st, decide if your going to locate another tranny in the cable version, if not, you need a Hasport cable to hydro conversion. You'll need a mount kit, a obd0 to obd1 wiring harness conversion, you'll need to do something with your hood so the B18 engine will clear the hood.
These are the preliminary steps.

I didnt believe it when my friends told me about. All they said was there was a 95 GSR for sale for $1500. At first I though its probably all wrecked and the motors blown or something. Me and my friend went to go check it out in Pecos, TX. We couldnt find it then I saw a red car sitting there. And I was like is that it? Got closer holy **** its a GSR!!! Only thing wrong with it is faded out paint. They thought the tranny was gone but its just the clutch!!!!!!!!! Offered them $1000 and they took it.

To this day, i have never seen a single Integra GSR at a Pick Your Part in Edmonton or Calgary, Never!

If you do come across one, your a very lucky man!

Here's another way of looking at things. Yes, the GSR costs more. But how much is it going to cost you to get an extra 20HP from a B16A? Quite a bit. Probably more than the price difference between the B16A and B18C1. Furthermore, you are not going to get that extra torque at ANY price. At least not allmotor.

 

I wish I held out for a b18c instead of a b16

 

I think I will
