motor question: type-r or gs-r on my 1990 crxdx?
can anyone give me an opinion between this two motors..the type -r is lil expensive than the gsr.. i would like to know what its better price wise...2400 gsr 4000 type-r installed...
why? just so you can say you have a type R?How about LS-vtec? it would be cheaper and possibly make more power for a fraction of the cost plus you can add bpu for the same price of an R, let alone finding an R engine.

LSVtec wasnt part of the question but an Lsvtec build will put out more powwa then a R for the price of a GSR Swap.

dang i just brought back a post from the dead askin this same q, and heres a new one, ****... well im curious as hell too cause like i said i got my b16 hatch hit from the side so im sellin cause its a big eye sore. i just bought the **** for my first oil change too god damn it. anyways, im gettin another ef and throwin one of these motors in for sure. not concerened with swap price just concerened with the stock overall performance. ive seen people with the b18c's in ef's run the same or just under the c5. so im lost as all hell.. not tryin to hijack the thread bro just as curious as you.
p.s. not plannin on turboing at all and i am gonna try and build the motor but not for a whiiiile..

i just dont want to run into any problems with ls-vtec..i would if i know someone that can built it really legit..but so far its either gs-r or type-r..im still debating..i just wanna be able to smoke fools..cuz i heard gs-r on crx can keep up with an itr...not sure..but can anyone ellobarate on that?
buy the gsr swap and put that other 1600 bucks in aftermarket goodies for it. cams, valvetrain and pistons and your already going faster than that stock type r motor.

Assuming he knows how to build an engine. Shops rape you on labor prices for those kind of installs. But true, $1600 will make a b18c1 quicker.

i believe he means, a crx w/ gsr motor VS. a itr (integra type R). from what ive seen, crx w/gsr motor takes the itr

Tell me were you found a GSR swap for $2400 so I and you can get one each because I have not seen them they go for $3k. Check http://www.hmotorsonline.com/s...30009
Not only is it $3k but you also forget the fact that you will also have to buy the hydro to cable conversion kit for $500 from hasport to run the tranny.

if i was to tell you where to get it then i have to let everyone know where to swoop on the deal..**** you are right about the hydro cable..i forgot about that..

If you can buy the GSR engine for $2k w/out tranny and then buy a b16 cable tranny seperate from someone for about $400 it would be cool. I would do it, since you got the hookup on the GSR well then go ahead and go with the GSR.
