debating weather i should build on my b18c motor or get a b16 head and make a poor man's type r??? let me know wut u guys think...open to new options

 

Install some ITR pistons and ARP rod bolts, build your head, depending if you want low and mid-range or top end power, get a single runner ITR style intake manifold. No point in buying another head if you already have a good gsr one, that money can go into tranny work or a P&P.

 

And here comes the GSR vs b16 head debate.

Search there is a huge thread on it.

 

nvm.

i am already lookin around for a b16 tranny and just waiting for me friend to hook me up with his p28 ecu....well i think ur right all-mtr-teg...i will just that money in twords somthing else like a new paint job...but wut pistions and rod bolts will give me the most bang for my buck??

 

if you find a good deal on the b16 head: get the b16 head and sell the c1 head. don't find one: stick with the c1 head. simple.

And one of the responses came from someone in this thread who didn't even build their car.

Use the money to get a port job on the gs-r head.

 

^^ i'd go with that idea i gotta gsr and bought a b16 head for it but never ended up doing cause i dont think its worth it unless you plan on putting more money into it, when you could just get a p&p

or if the OP dosen't want to spend the money on a PnP for the GSR head, the B16 head flows much better stock then a stock GSR

and P.S. yes i did

 

well i had a idea...im just gunna keep my gsr head get it p&p and build it up a little bit...new pistons..and ect...then after i get all that prolly gunna boost it and run about 8lbs. of boost...good idea...cuz were im at no one around here as a boosted gsr ...or any that ive seen..lemme know wut u think

 

unless u want to use a type r manifold then keep the gsr head there really is no difference. skunk2 makes a nice manifold for the gsr head

You're right, MUCH better.

Wait, did I say MUCH better? I meant almost identical. Thanks for the misinformation though.

Right and you've been proved wrong.

And P.S. I like how you knew I was talking about you.

dude, dont get the B16 head unless you change your compression, bolting the pr3 head onto the gsr block will drop the compression due to the larger combustion chambers. its not even worth the swap IMO.

the head in stock vs stock for, the pr3 only out flows it higher up.

Oh noes! It'll drop my compression by .25, now i won't have any horsepower!

Yeah, the B16 does flow better at the top.

it already has the skunk2 IM...i put it on myself when i had the car...told the owner now that he needs to make up his mind which way he is gonna go....n/a or boosted....totally complete different builds...but i think he has more worries right now since he most likely already floated/bent a valve...and thats in 1 month of ownership.
