Ok...I am "new" to this site so keep the "go search noob" to yourself. I found a '95 Gsr w/150k miles and its going for 4g's. Ok....That is definetely how much I have and I cant save for something better. Anyway...I need to know what is the compression on the cylinders supposed to read? I'm gonna take a compression kit over to do it myself and I need to know the specs. Also, the dude is running an open header so its throwing a code. What I wanna know, is the code because of that? Any help will be much appreciated! Thanks in advance.

 

Not sure about the compression.

As far as the code goes: Probably. In '95 the High-temp O2 sensor was in the cat before the actual catalysts. If he's running open headers chances are pretty good that there is no sensor there anymore and it's throwing a code (and running rich, and a couple other things). I'd still run the code though just to be sure that nothing else is wrong.

 

Thanks. How do u run a code? Is there a simple way of doing it? Where it throws a number and I could just post up here and see if someone knows? Any help would be great!

 

Anybody know what compression a 1995 GSR should have? THanks!

 

I'd say about 240 or so

 

in my 95 gsr i got 200 across all 4 and thats with 152k on it.

you sure a gsr is stock 240? if so now i feel bad, maby its time for a rebuild

 

Image from the helms manuel &gt;&gt;&gt;It says right under the hood on the sticker what the compression should be . There is an article on http://www.team-integra.net that tells all about it .

Nominal is 270
Minimal is 135 with a variance of no more than 28 per cylinder

 

dam now i feel bad. looks like i better look in to new rings and some head work. can i just chnage the rings on my pistons that are in there? or can i swap some CTR pistions in there with the stock sleves?

 

with 200 across your in great shape man.. no worries there at all .

 

Ok...this is good info. Have any of you done a compression check yourselves? I'm gonna attempt to do it by the instruction of my mechanic (who cant go). Thanks! I was planning on doing a rebuild on the head anyway though.
