alright. i got a 95 civic lx. the engine is beat. slow as expletive . so im getting a gsr and swappin it. good idea? and im swapping the tranny too. all new under the hood.. any ideas? thanks

 

go for it

 

sounds like a good idea!

 

my buddy has a gsr in his civic hatchback 92. the gsr is bone stock, but the car doesn't move like bone stock. you get up to 0 to 80mph in no time flat.

 

i swapped a 97 GSR in my 94 dx coupe. I love it! its very quick. a little advice, i went ahead and bought a exedy street clutch and put it in at the same time. i also have hasport motor mounts. very nice, the engine nevers moves. get one! now!

 

I have a '95 GSR in a '92 Civic. you'd probably want to make sure that GSR is OBD1 for less headaches.

 

while u have it outta the car change the clutch if u plan on doing it later and timing belt and water pump might be a good idea 2 just a thought.. or atleast inspect the timing belt while its outta the car

Agreed, get ODB1 for less problems :-\

I personally like the GSR as a motor, compact package with nice torque and hp, of course it's not the fastest thing in the world, but it'll be an eye-widener from ur stock LX motor :-P

yep might as well convert to obd 1 so you wont have to deal with the knock sensor...

 

b18 with b16 tranny Thas what i got

 

sounds like a plan homie

 

what does it matter if the motor is a 99 and is going in a 92-95 obd1 car. the only thing that makes it obd1 or 2 is the intake manifolds. and distributor. but all parts can be swapped out for obd1 intakemanifold and distrib... or i am incorrect.
