And waste more money when he want's to swap it anyway?

If you'll have the money, get the c1.

 

Thats wat I was thinking also...I dont want to jus keep up will mainstream races...i wanna b some wat domient or capable of being so....All Motor

 

If you really want to go all motor I suggest doing an h2b.

It can Be done for the same price as a gsr.

 

i would like to see a GSR in a sol

 

B18C1 . If you're lucky get a C5 but C1 is good enough for me :D

 

like the ls is an inferior engine???

 

You could always put together a poor man's type R...would be much cheaper than a c5...or just go with the gsr (I wish I had one).

Can't complain with my ls/gsr tranny swap though, still costs less than a gsr swap

 

Or you can just pick up a D16z6 for cheap and boost it for less than the GSR, but if you have the money and really want to toss 3k+ at your car, go for the GSR.

 

Don't waste money on the GSR or ITR.

Get an LS, they're cheap as ****.

Pair it with a B16 or ITR transmission*, and it'll be quick as hell, cheap, too. The LS drops almost as much torque as the GSR, only difference is how it gets to the wheels.

* For those who are about to inform me that an ITR and B16 trans are the same, the final drive is different .

 

I'd go GSR...

I was always curious about matting a LS swap with a B16/R/GSR tranny. Do you know what kind of 1/4 times you would get with a bolt on LS with B16 in say a hatch?

 

I'd go LS, whole swap for like $1000. Like someone said earlier, shorter tranny will let you keep up in the mean time, then go K-series.

 

i say go LS.. then down the road BOOST it. them LS love boost thats my plan

Nope. USDM ITR and B16 trannies are the same. Right down to the final drive(4.4). The difference is the JDM ITR. It has a 4.785 FD, along with different gearing(slightly).

Do your research before you over-generalize.

Indeed.

 

Just save and put a K series in it.

 

go ls non vtec boost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

why? is the vtec in the ls/vtec swap the turbo killer?

 

I hate these threads... it's just a bunch of different opinions that doesn't get the op any further along in his/her decision.

Save your money and read a lot more in the meantime. You'll make your own decision when you're informed enough

 

Ya dats true
...I like different swaps for different reasons but i really wanna go all motor
...Maintainance wise I dont think im ready for boost I dont want to put myself in the now.....a ls with b16 tranny is another swap i like but i want vtec...[ya im picky]ma boy told me save between 1600-2200 for a full gsr swap so i think ima stick with that plan....with bolt ons
