The motor is a gsr or either jdm gsr if there is no 1 at the end of b18c. But the manifold is from a gsr so it gives it away. The only thing that throws me off is the none painted lip kit I thought GSR's were color matched to paint color.

Uh, that car redlines BEFORE 7000rpm. that is NOT a GSR. it looks like a 92-93 GS (B18B1), which redlines at 6800rpm. The 94+ LS/RS/GS also had a 6800rpm redline. GSR it is NOT.
Also that car looks turbo'd.
So why do you ask?

what gen GS-R was it? the '92-'93 GS-Rs didn't have a "DOHC VTEC" badge, they had a "GS-R" badge.
the pics that are up now are definately not of a real GS-R. there are a few ways to tell that also.

Rep Power: 375 right, the 92-93 GSR had the B17 engine. the 94+ had the B18C1. I didn't really see much confusion here about that?

if its an original GSR the side molding should say VTEC, the RPM's should go to 9g's,redline at 8,200, have a sunroof, and I believe the 3rd, 4th, and 5th numbers on the VIN should say DB2.
