if it were me i would be asking evans tuning about your list. Will he be doing the tuning also? Not that it matters to me, but it seems like the guy building your motor would have a better idea of what is right for your build.

Why does everyone want CTR pistons? Why challenge the tuner? Just get P30's, or USDM P73's or JDM P73's.
Just use a new Oil and water pump, same part number for a GSR and ITR.
5 angle valve job verse 3 angle minimal gain. Waste of money.
Skunk doesn't make a 62mm T/B, Just get your stock T/B bored out to 64mm.
Make sure your intake piping is 3".
Stock fuel rail can handle way more power than you'll see. Stock fuel pump will also work. Don't really need a new fuel line either, waste of money.
You ment SMSP for the header, right?
Tuning Hondata S300?
Try to save up some money and get the head PnP'd.
I bet you think you'll get over 200whp with this. You'll be close.

sounds like a good build, few things unnecessary but good to get done and over with, but def be concerned with the tuning because thats going to make or break the entire build, and while your at it get some ACL bearings any maybe the extra oil line to the head from the ls/vtec kit to keep oil in that bitch at 10grand

You can ignore this post. An "extra" oil line is pointless. Show me someone else that does this.

Sounds like a good build man. Like the others said, a few unnecessary items, but your headed in the right direction.

Alright, so I am switching to JDM ITR pistons on GSR rods with ARP rodbolts. and according to zealautowerks compression calculator.

With p73-00 3 layer headgasket = 11.59 Compression

With p73-00 2 layer headgasket = 11.81 Compression

and im going to start looking for stock GSR fuel rail, line, and FPR

the b16 gears are more suited to that build. so far it's looking great though. make sure to figure your compression in order to shave what you need. other than that degreeing the cams and a tune are the really big things.

I kind of see what you are going for, but there are somethings that you need to change do the compression that you will running with them CTR pistons in that GSR block...go with a larger injector, as them 370's will max out...no need for a 3" exhaust this will kill your bottom end power band...stick to a 2.5" you need some of that back pressure. Use the B16 tranny, and due away with the GSR. your cam profile is to small for the rest of that head and block set up...try something larger like a Buddyclub stage 3 cam, the overbore size of your pistons is very large, I hope your getting that block sleeved. Try getting an oil pan that has the sump closer to the block so that your engine doesn't have issues durning track envents with fast cornering oil travels to one side, and this will cause the engine to fry the piston rings that aren't getting oil...Also there is large list of parts...But I don't see your most imporant part....where is your brake set up?

Im not using the CTR pistons anymore, im using JDM ITR pistons. the exhaust ive heard o
pinions going both ways. The pistons arnt overbore sized. and i plan on getting the moroso pan and pickup. and with brakes. already taken care of.

Cool the JDM P73 piston is a pretty high compression piston as well, but you should be good with a 3 layer gasket...And I say do more research on the exhaust...I wouldn't guide in a wrong direction...I have an Eg6 built for touge, and I've experimented with tons of parts and set ups...And Iam tell you that a 2.5 is the way to go. Good chioce when the oil pan if it is just for track use, but know that they are made of aluminum whick makes them weak...I say use your stock, just have someone weld you a new baffle inside that makes the oil sit closer to the crank without distrubing the way the oil pump sits....get more oil splashed on them sleeves!
