I searched about the poor mans type r and their isn't much info on it.

Is it worth doing?

95 gsr block *stock*
B16a head port/polished
ITR cams
3 angle valve job

Would it be worth putting these 2 together?

Currently i have my JDM B16A2 in my eg and am very happy with it,But i'm wondering if i should go with the type r wannabe.

Is it reliable for a daily driver?

Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated

 

yeah it would be pretty reliable (comprable to your current setup)

 

anyone else?

 

it will be reliable if its done right, and very worth it IMO

 

What ecu are you running? Are you planning on getting a V-AFC and tuning, or hondata?

 

since you got a b16 already and gsr short blocks dont go for much, i'd say go for it. i think its work it. or if your really short on cash just go lsvtec.

 

I'm running a P30 ecu and i plan on running uberdata.

 

yes , you will not be disapointed,

 

what kind of transmission do you have

 

y21 lsd

 

do it, a few people i know have them, they are fast, tune that **** though it will be way worth it.

 

your compression is going to be lower than a stock GSR if you dont swap the pistons out. combustion chamber is larger on B16/ITR cylinder heads when compared to factory GSR heads.

 

The compression will drop .2 so i'm not to worried,I plan to boost it in the spring anyway.

 

planning on the same setup

running stock b16a2 with bolt ons
