gsr block
I want to build a gsr block is it better if I put CTR piston or Type R pistons Ive notice that the compression is higher on the CTR pistons than the type Rs also the head which one gets more hp the type R head on GSR block or just a gsr head...HELP

Re: gsr block (ERNIEinDAteg)
lol sorry have to do it......... whats the differnce between type R and ctr? they are the same thing 
ctr=civic type r.... itr= integra type r........... sorry......... i know what you mean though itr or ctr....... the ctr's will give you a much higher c/r but the same power could be made with the itr's becuase you will actually be able to run a good amount of timing on pump gas
as far as heads i would go with the itr....... but im biased

too much compression for eveyday driving.
i go with p30
they will give you more compression than itr pistons</TD></TR></TABLE>
I am also not a fan of the CTR PCT piston, but Do you have ANY proof to this statment in bold?
ITR = P73
CTR = PCT

depends on a few factors, see for yourself: http://www.zealautowerks.com/

Ok you question me and make my point,

Re: (sticky icky)
They are designed for NA applications with a Compression ratio of
B16A Block and Head 10.95:1
B18C1 Block and Head 12.40:1
B18C1 Block and B18c5/B16A Head 12.10:1
B18A/B Block with B18C1 Head 12.64:1
thats just what I found to prove it

Are you calculating CTR PCT compressions? If so they are much higher in each application. You must factor in the piston compression height.

What is funny is you sealed your own fate. Check for yourself.
P30's in my engine equals 11.5:1. P73-00's in my engine equals 11.59:1. I like that calculator though. Only one I have seen so far that actually factors in compression height and true piston-to-deck height which is key. Everyone always thinks P30's will yield more compression based on dome displacement alone, but there are other factors as shown.
