From scratch, not worth it. If you already have everything from a B16 (head/tranny/pistons mostly), then yeah.

Changing the headgasket is essential but has nothing to do with making it a "true poorman's R"
More about swapping out the GSR pistons with at least ITR at the minimum and ITR cams at the minimum.
