so im thinking of getting a GSR swap for my 00ek but its almost impossible to find a 00 gsr swap. ive read all the sticky's on Baring a JDM motor and id like a type R but it just seems like wayy too much work and parts would be hard to find.
now, a member here did get his type R swap Bar'd with the following:

1. stock header

2. stock cat. (this will work better than an after market unit, plus you'll probably need the extra cat. material to make up for higher compression.)

3. usdm intake manifold (jdm doesn't have purge solenoid nipple)

4. purge solenoid

5. usdm type r ecu ( since my car is a 2k year model I needed a 2k year model ecu, which is obdIIb also I had to get my key programmed to this usdm ecu sine there is an immobilizer)

6. usdm obdII oil pump (the one with mounting brackets for the CKF [crank fluctuation sensor])

7. CKF sensor

8. usdm crank gear ( the jdm one has the key welded to the gear)

9. usdm obdII lower timing belt cover.

10. usdm vtec solenoid (the whole unit which mounts to the head with the 3 10mm screws, the jdm unit doesn't have an oil pressure sensor)

11. crank gear key


now, if i get a 00 JDM GSR do i need all that oil pump, CKF sensor, key, timing belt and all that stuff or is it just for the Type R motor?

i know i need intake and exhaust manifolds and USDM ecu but if it requires all the other little things i think ill just turbo my lil d16 thanks.

anyone? same work to get a jdm gsr barred or just the ecu and manifolds?
