would a jspec b18c5 fit in the american ITR

jspec b18c5= japans type r engine correct? well if not wut is it called

if it does fit.. how much would it cost and wut places would normally do it

the jspec type-r is the b18c3 if im not mistaken the usdm type-r is the b18c5

yes a jdm type-r motor will fit in a usdm type-r

Also, the j.spec type-r motor is labeled B18C (no number), usdm type-r is B18C5. afaik B18C3 doesn't exist.

um yeah it does seen em myself the c3 does exist.

um yeah it does seen em myself the c3 does exist.

edit oh and here is another one
http://www.geocities.com/dynocenter/jdm_itr.html

quoted from site "Quick Worldwide ITR motor comparison chart (Source: Official Honda ITR brochures)"

soO .. JDM ITR enging=b18C

soO...JDM ITR engine=b18C
USDM ITR engine= b18 c5

http://www.geocities.com/dynocenter/jdm_itr.html

this site says that the JDM ITR 98+ has about 197 hp. does the JDM have aobut 210?

oh and i was planning on switchin a 02+ JDM engine in the usdm itr.

ooo the old type R motor then hmm learn somthing new everyday

y the hell would you want to change the motor. you must be rich and that motor there is nothing wrong with it.

there is no such thing as a b18c3 .. that website is bullshit ...

:eek7:

oo aite ..so can i switch a k20A(2001+type r JDM) in a usdm ITR.

Yes it is possible. (Needless to say, not worth it, at this point.)

there is too man that is yet another site to prove it its rarer(is that even a word) the the b17a. ive seen one in a car myself

kphyco:y the hell would you want to change the motor. you must be rich and that motor there is nothing wrong with it(dont kno how to quoate)

i am planning on buying a usdm typ r for under 10 grand. one that is salvaged or something. salvaged meaning the motor is bad=new motor= k20A=]

i am also getting this because the k20A is like the k20A2(usdm Rsx type s). a cold air intake will bring 20hp to the wheels. whereas i/h/e for most cars brings them 15-20 whp

correct me if im wrong =]

there is no way in hell a CAI will bring 20hp to the wheels unless the stock one is only about .5 inches wide. also if ya find a salvaged type-r its either been stolen and everything is striped. not worth putting back together. or TRASHED. i highly doubt youll find one with no or blown motor in any condition worth getting.

thats not wut i heard...cuz the RSX type s engine is compact or sumtin. mah bro has rsx type s..he did alot of research. i dunno i guess we need couple more poepls opinions

i saw one on autotrader.com that is 8gz. salvaged title..even tho if the engine is gone, or blown motor..im gettin k20a in it neways.

speaking of k20A..where wud i find one..is it really rare to find one? and how much wud the whole engine swap cost

there's a place here in chicago that is selling a complete jdm k20a swap for 5k. search the yellow pages site for chicago and the name is like eric of japan engines or something.

lol..dang im south kali.. =/
but i figured it'd b aroudn 5k...is 5k just for labor..or for the engine and labor

no just engine.

once the swap is complete...will it be a right handded drive. or can i still sit on the left

bwahahahaha man you need to search and learn a bit. it will still be LHD. its just an engine swap.

search feature works wonders try it out omg 20whp slap that guy.

wuts LHD..haha..yea ill try to find proof on 20whp gain. the 15-20whp gain from a CAI is onli for the k20a2 engine, just incase u guys thought i meant it for all engines. but i will find proof

http://performance.clubrsx.com/intaketest/runs/INJENvsSTOCK.jpg

injen cai vs stock air box. aobut 14 hp gain.

neways..getting bak on the topic...what is LHD...and will the k20a b able to fit in a usdm gsr too? all usdm integras?

left hand drive.. that cai is impressive, and it would be a bitch to even try... i thionk the k series is backwards compared to the b series isn't it?

wut do u mean it will be backwards... and i do not think i will do it myself, prolly let some company do it. i dont want to fuck it up myself

and wut do u mean it will be backwards??? like the tranny? cuz i read in a thread to try to turn thet tranny upsidedown

wut do u mean it will be backwards?? lol

i'm not 100% but i believe the whole engine is the other way around.. like exhaust at the back, intake at the front.. makes more sense than the whole b series line... more direct air induction, shorter length of exhaust.. i'm not sure about the rotation of the crank, i'd assume it's the same as all the other motors.. never given it much thought

He means the engine spins the other way around.

Also, the intake manifold is now in the front, and the header in the rear.

oo yea yea ..mah bros rsx type s is like that. but will that be a problem?? it can still fit and run perfectly rite? what wud some of the problems be like

uh.. i'm not sure.. i didn't see any mounts for it at hasport.. wasn't looking tho, getting it to fit would be a pain in the arse... as would wiring, unless there was some sort of conversion harness..
check it out for yourself tho... www.hasport.com (http://www.hasport.com)

ic...well can k20a fit in 3rd gen usdm gsr

and still...i kno it the engin is backwards..but wut types of problems will it bring? how do i solve this if ther is any

Regardless of which b18 motor usdm or jdm they are all the same size and will bolt right in. For the
ka series motor check out hasport in Phoenix,AZ for the mount kit.

Have you considered doing an LS-VTEC setup or some other Fankenstein motor? Just a thought to ponder. You may be able to save some money.

no i want a k20a in mah car. =]. can soembody tell me the specs for k20a (jdm 02+itr) because they have diff specs in each site. off by like 10 hp or couple torque

i found this k20a engine. it comes wit the 6 speed tranny...jusss to make sure..mah car is still gonna b LHD rite? even the the motor comes wit the tranny. are trannys diff in LHD and RHD

no..the tranny's are the same.

how much wud labor cost? the engine itself is like ~5gz...+labor wut b how much?

Labor would be approximately $1000-$1500. Depends on where you take it though, and if they try to screw you or not. Call around and ask for quotes.
