96-97 and 98-01 b18c5 whats the difference

[zerosilver19]

I am just curious whats the difference from a 96-97 b18c5 type r motor compared to a 98-01 b18c5. because on www.totaljdm.com the compression, hp,torque, are all the same just the price is different? so what is the difference between the years?

i took a look and its the millage and the dont say it but the 98-01 actually redlines higher than a 96-97.

well, if you did a search, you could probably find a difference. also, if you checked other websites, then maybe you'd find out. www.hmotorsonline.com

They Are Almost Identical. Except For The Redline Being Higher On The Newer Ones.

there was not 96 b18c5 itr. 97 was the first year of the ITR in the state that had the b18c5. There was a 96 jdm itr, but those don't have the b18c5. Just a little FYI.

well I couldn't find the article from your link, but if they claim there was a 96 USDM ITR they are wrong. There was a 96 JDM itr, but not a USDM. the us itr was first brought to the us in 97, and is first itr to carry the b18c5. J-spec itr's came with a b18c, and I have herd that the earlier jdm itr's (96 and before) came with a b18c3, but I don't know wheather or not that is true. But that is becide the point. The point is there never was a 96 usdm itr. Or any itr in 96 that came with a b18c5! They must be mistaken, or you read the article wrong.

If it is jdm then it wouldnt have a b18c5 in it!!!!!!! the first thread stated the difference between the 96-97, and 98-01 b18c5! The b18c5 only came in the usdm itr. therefore you aren't making any sence. you say b18c5, then u say it is jdm not usdm! The jdm itr's came with a b18c, with no 5 after the c, and I have heard that the 96 and earlier came with a b18c3. Non the less neither of those are a b18c5!
