Don't get me wrong a type r is a type r for the money your better off sellin your gsr and buying a used type r. The R isn't just the motor but the many other things and to make you gsr into one will cost money.

Besides why mod to be just like one there aren't many stock type r around so you would spend all the loot and still get spanked

i went from a SCed GSR to CRVTEC and at times i do miss the SC but getting the rush of whooping fools on the motor is priceless. Its up to u thouh man what are u thinking about swapping it for and how extreme do u wanna go that what it all comes down to
