I have a GSR block and dont know what to do with it. I want to build it up. I dont really want to spend that much. I just want to smoke peeps on the streets. I dont really want turbo tho. I heard of boring out the block to 84.mm...So give me some ideas on building up my GSR block. I want HP...................thanks

 

vtec controller and some cams... helped me out alot

 

How much money to spend then? Getting new sleeves to 84.5mm bore is going to cost you.

 

can I just bored my block without getting new sleeves? I was wondering if I can get some JDM integra type r O/S piston. Well, get me some more ideas....thanks

 

You can bore out to 82mm max i believe, but that makes your sleeves weaker. If you want to do it right, get it resleeved. That should cost $750-1000 for sleeves, then you gotta get bigger bore pistons, stronger rods, gaskets/seals/bearings. So it will add up.

If all that you are getting is jdm itr pistons 25 over, then stock sleeves would be okay.

 

Is it a GSR short block or longblock?

I am doin mine right now.... And im puttin CTR pistons in there with a B16 head, That should give me about 12:1 compression. Then im goin with a Skunk2 valve train and crower cams,Prelude injectors, ITR fuel pump, And an ITR manifold down the road.

Thats a pretty cheap buildup that should yeild some ok power

 

Yeah, its a GSR block that I have. So, CTR piston are better then ITR piston? Wont it have a high compression. I might have to use a higher octane in then 92??? Im going to put a Integra type r head in my GSR block. With one would be better, to mill your head or just get thinner head gasket????

 

The CTR pistons in a GSR block with an ITR head will have about 12:1, there shouldnt be a problem running that on 92 octane.

And personaly i wouldnt mill my head for jack ****, and i dunno if i would even run a thinner head gasket. Im all about the honda factory parts.

 

Hey, how bout if I get some O/S CTR piston in my GSR block? What do you think????

 

check out our engines page.. the race block section.. that will give you an idea of how much diff stages of blocks cost.

 

I'm running std bore CTR slugs in a B18c...B16a head and Toda B's. It makes good power. Haven't had a chance to dyno it...92 octane should be fine. Make sure you have fuel and you'll be good.

Got my CTR pistons from ITRinEJ1
