I am going to purchase my JDM GSR motor tomorrow. I am having second thoughts, just because I am going to spend a lot of money to do this right. I just want to make sure that there are no suprises when I go to put the motor in.

Has anyone had trouble with the Hasport mounts and the stock OBD1 intake manifold for the GSR swap into an EF?

In one of the other posts I read: "The GSR intake manifold touches the firewall."

anyone?

 

I know for a fact that IF it does touch with the Hasport mounts, you can definately use the ANR mounts and it will clear. My mounts sat my B16 about 3" more forward than the Hasport mounts. I figured that comparison by taking my 4-2-1 header off of my car, where I had to cut the crossmember a little and the header sat about 2" off the radiator. I put that same header on someone elses CRX with Hasport mounts and he had more clearance (motor sat higher) and the motor sat further back (more clearance in between the header and radiator) but he had less firewall clearance. I could change my TPS sensor with ease, where as his you can't (less space to move)

 

it will fit i have a jdm gsr in my crx w/ hawsports fits no problem, i went with a skunk2 IM after just for more clearance/performance.

 

i have an ITR intake manifold with no problems

 

Thank you. I am going to try the Hasports. I will post pictures when done.
