Whats up all? I live in The Cayman Islands and I own a JDM 1997 Integra Type R 4 door version (yes it is real) I have been running 9.3 on street tires on the 1/8th track here. Intake and crappy Jasma header only... But... I want to get to 8.5's and under to kill some Evo guys

2 Goals (While still being a daily driven car):
1: Get to 8.5 secs on the 1/8th track
2: Not blow to up on 93 pump gas on this compression

Set up im thinking about:

Cayman is JDM heaven... I have 2 b16 heads, 1 type r head, a b18a, a b18b, a b18c type r and a b16a block, 2 gear boxes, civic SIr and Type R, also a CTR bare block, and a GSR crank...

So basically... what should I build?? I originally was going to build my Type R block... but i rather drop it out and put it up, so if anything happens, i can drop that bad boy back in!

So... BIG QUESTION... B18C Type R OR B18B LS with 81mm CP pistons 12.5 would be faster??

My ideas:
** CP pistons 12.5 pistons just arrived purrrrtyyy
Eagle rods
**King Bearings (B18a/b LS)
** J's Racing Fat Carbon fiber intake
Buddy Club retainers + springs
flat faced valves (not sure which ones to get)
RC injectors (not sure which ones to get)
Skunk2 Pro2 or 3... (help)
Hondata s200... (trying to cheap out a lil)

**I recently built a Type R block with LS crank/rods/ CTR pistons... but a pin slipped out of a piston and shaved down a cylinder wall during break in.. I know.... thats messed up. The thing sounded like a bike... I want higher compression than that now tho...But... another question.. Is that build just the same as a LS block with CTR pistons??**

Long post... I have a lot to say....

 

ok long postt but yeaa

i have a type r engine in my hatch i made 220whp 150 tq all motor with a stock blockk
my compression is 12.1-12.5 the head is fully bulit with skunk 2 stage 2 cams port polish .....u get it check my threads for more info, anyway i say keep the type r original i wudnt worry too much about making it fastt since its a 4 door rreal type rs are sexyyyyy so keep it like it is and get u a lighter car that way u doont waste too much money trying to get the fatt 4 door down the track at 8.5 when u can run 8 flats with the same motor and power in a hatch or coupe ''egs''

soo i say bulild the ls block and b16 head throw it in a htach make 220whp and run low 8s or bulid the type r make 220 and still run 8.6 8.7s if ur lucky

 

My 4 door R is like 130 lbs heavier than a 2dr Type R. I run the same times as 2 door R's here with similar mods.

Yeah... the weight does slow me down... If I could get the B18C Type R swap sold to someone, I would go with a K24. But... if noone buys the entire swap, Ill go ahead and continue building a wild LS Vtec.

Also... at 12.5 compression pistons... a b16 head and flat faced valves shud take me to like 12.8 I guess.... but... im just really curious as to how that much more compression translates to more HP, or power in general.
