You use a gsr timing belt, always match the timing belt to what block you have. Gsr or b16 will work provided that your still 81mm aka stock bore. The part numbers from acura and honda are the same for both head gaskets.

Either gsr or itr timing belt will work, b16 wont work because b16 blocks are shorter in height
