Can someone point me in the right direction as to the differences between a JDM GSR B18C and a JDM ITR B18C. Things like outward visual differences and trannies that came on each, ecu's and things that i can look at to verify that it is an ITR not a GSR. And obvious things like IM and valve cover i know, im kinda looking for thigs that you cant take off, and i could be sure.

Im possibly buying a hatch with a 96 B18C that he states is ITR. Could the vin# on the block tell me something? What should i look for?

Also for a 96.. what tranny was included on this and what are the specs on it.. LSD? 4.875 FD? Stuff like that.

Thanks fellas

 

I always thought the JDM GSR would say B18C1, and the JDM Type R would say B18C.

 

no.. they both say b18c. only the u.s. puts numbers at the end.

Yes.

And, if the motor has`nt been messed with, you`ll notice the difference on the IM, you can`t mistake the GSR`s snail....

 

i know about the IM... the vin that is stamped on the block has to tell me something. The vins have to be diffrent if the car came out of a GSR or ITR....

 

Try looking on the head, GSR would say P72 and the Type R would say P72(for USDM, not sure if it's the same for JDM motors).

 

the GSR head is stamped with a p72.. the the ITR's, JDM or USDM, are stamped with a PR3..i think.. both blocks are identical on the outside.. so good luck..
