Phoniex Yellow Ls, wanna be type r.

[2000_gs]

doesn't my car already have a b18c? and what's an ls-vtec...

[B16EJ1]

B18C= GSR= VTEC
B18B=LS/GS/RS= No VTEC

LSVTEC= VTEC head on B18B/A block= mad hp

haha ya i dont think you should spend your money making your ride look like a type r, and spend your money so it could beat em... anyways, if you just painted your teg Phoenix yellow you could still tell that its a fake because the 97 ITRs only came in championship white and the newer ITRs came with yellow or black as an option, so the older front wouldnt go with the yellow thus making it easy to tell that your ride is a fake... add that to the interior, and the 5 lug conversion etc.... anyways, do what you want to do, its your ride and good luck!

so do i just change my engine to a vtec? and it's supposed to get "mad hp" how much can i expect? and is this expensive to do? how do i go about doing this?

[pnballer5]

your car is an LS... it has a b18b not a b18c... you can turn your engine into an LS-vtec by swapping the head from any b-series engine with vtec (b18c1, b18c5, b16a etc)... the head needed for conversion could cost anywhere around 1000 im guestimating give or take... anyways, do some homework and look around... shouldnt be too hard to find a new head... anyways good luck

ls/vtec

I think you should do what you want, as long as you're happy with your car. Personally, I like spankin people with an LS non-vtec. The swap is really just a waste of time and money because you would also need to update your suspension to type r specs. You might as well save up money for an actual type r. Good luck

the b18c5 IS the type-r motor honestly about the whole paint business it doesnt matter whether you have a real type-r or not or if ur called a poser or whatever, what matters is if you can smoke your competition then they wont care if it really is a type-r or not. if a modified gs-r beat a type-r then the type-r with be on their knees to a gs-r who cares if it's really a typee-r or not or if it looks like one or is really one im getting the pheonix yellow paint on my 94 LS auto but swapped in gs-r motor(much cheaper for only 20 hp less than the type-r's and lower compression for turbo) i can use that extra grand or 2 to turbocharge or rebuild that motor and smoke the type-r's i already have a cf type-r lip on a 98-01 bumper with 98-01 headlights and amber corner lights cf hood cf spoon mirrors 98-01 rear bumper type-r spoiler i could careless what people say if its a real type-r or not bc of the sunroof or 4 -5 lug conversion. if someone talked trash about whats so gay about my car then i would shut him up after smokin his ass then he'll forget what he said to me. Anyways the JDM older type-r with the white rims are 4 lugs not 5 not every single type-r ever made has 5 lugs, look into it.
the seats in the type-r are suede seats which i think is luxurious enough compared to the vinyl seats in the gs and gs-r and cloth seats in the RS and LS

the B18c5 is the ITR(integra type R ) engine. I believe it has a 195hp and not to sure on the torque. go to msn.com and research the auto section.

i agree with u so much,i hate it when i see ppl pretending to be a type R
and i also like how u took off you badge i meen shit i would do it to a type r its alot more supprising to whoever u just wiped up.

the b18c5 is the ITR engine. it is a 1.8L DOHC Vtec engine. It has 195 hp i belive, and 130 lbft. 0-60 in 6.5 seconds, 1/4 in 17.57 seconds. and the type R looks hella tight!

[honda_racing101]

its the USDM teg type r engine and i think its rated at 19 5

[pepsihatman]

That quarter mile is ... totally off. My gsr does it in 15.3. The type R is about 14.7 I believe. That is of course in the integra type R. Put the engine in a CRX or something lighter, and you get a very fast car.
