Seriously thinking of this setup so i wanted to know things like the compression ratio, what head gasket, anything extra i have to buy.

All feedback is greatly appreciated.

 

compression will be 9.5-1 any bseries vtec head gasket will work, kind of a waste unless you install some jdm itr or p30 pistons to up compression

 

could i use a thinner head gasket to up the compression also how much would the pistons raise compression.

good lookin out thanks for your help

 

bump for question

I agree but when done right quite a screamer
thinner headgasket won't do enough alone.
I can't find my comp ratio cacl to help now but i beilve from 10.8 to 13 can be made with stock honda pistons depending.

I'll try the calc again sites down

 

"Poor man's type R" if built with the right components, they can rip. Do some research on 'em and you will find a bunch of people using this setup, both F.I. and all motor. If you search, you will learn. (said in the field of dreams voice, "If you build it, they will come") haha. good luck and let us know with a project thread how it goes.

 

i have a gsr block, b16 head, pct pistions, and itr cams
to bad i have a ls tannny
top pulls hard tho

do i need different head studs?

Damn yo bump

 

you would need to use gsr head studs

 

i got a gsr block w/gsr crank and rods ctr pistons w/ b16a head and itr springs and valves skunk2 st. 2 cams. comp. is 12.3 runs sick on 93 oct. its a poor mans itr, but it definitely screams on the top. dynoed at 198 w/o ps and ac belts. id be willing to sell the top and bottom since i just got a dart block and plan to boost soon. but when i do im just gonna sell the block and use the head i think. sorry to stray off topic but poor mans type r is defintely a fun setup. BTW if anyone is looking for a this gsr block with the ctr pistons in about a month itll be up f/s on here

 

i need the block
but wut would be better jdm itr pistons or ctr pistons

 

you have sparked a good question, maybe ill too go with a gsr block with my b16 head as i plan to get some better internals as i am boosting

 

well the block has ctr pistons, compression 12.3.
and yeah, a gsr block from what i understand is one of the strongest, and crank as well, so using it in conj. with a b16 top yields a pretty decent setup. my car screams on the top for sure. it also has a jdm itr tranny w/ jdm final drive, so its always in power band. its not my build, actually the kid i bought it from built it. his name is chris (H82LOSE) on TR forums, so props to him.
but to raise compression, you have to have high comp. pistons, ctr pistons have the highest comp. ratio of the factory slugs, then itr i believe (11.1)? so high comp. pistons, gsr crank in gsr block, rods of your choice, assuming they work and will give you a well rounded rod ratio, and as for the b16 head, in order to reach the high revs, you need your upgraded valvetrain (valve springs, retainers, valves. then just get yourselfsome high lift cams, cam gears, little larger injectors, and some type of ecu with a good tune, and you got yourself a nicedaily screamer

if you were to sell your block how much would u sell it for

 

not sure yet when i get it out in a about 2 weeks and see what it looks like ill let you know. you want to check back soon lill keep you posted.

 

thanks keep me posted

 

intrested in the whole subject..

i have a b16a2 for the summer that just passed and i wanna be faster for next summer !

 

Hey Terry, im very interested on the GSR block>>>plus i live in nj not to far to new york!!!! let me know how much do you want for the block>>> Tell me first before you tell the other "skankes" in here thx>>>XOXOOX

 

i also vouch for the poor mans. I just finished my build and it is the funnest build i have had. mine is about 11.5cp and runs like a champ after the tune.
