GS-R in our engine bay (Pics)
I got pics side by side of a 2000 integra GS-R and my 2k1 Civic. You guys tell me what you think if the swap is possible...

The Integra's engine bays are quite a bit larger than ours, hell, htown is losing his power steering and ac with the RSX engine, I can't imagine that one fitting.

There is a thread out there with pictures of a guy in southern tiawan who did a b16a swap into a 7thgen. According to people who did h-town's swap, any b-series motor will swap as easily as any k-series. the only two motors that probably wouldn't fit would be the h-22 and the b-20.

GS-R Specs:

Engine: B18C1 DOHC VTEC

HP: 170 HP @7600 RPM
Torque: 128 lbs/ft torque @ 6200 RPM
VTEC engagement 4400 RPM
Curb weight: 2667 lbs
compression: 10:0:1
stock 1/4 mile: aprrox. 14.7-15.8 (I have heard of three situations that a high 14 second run was done by a stock GS-R, not credible, I have also heard of a stock GS-R doing 17 seconds, so anything is possible [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG])


Let me know if you want anymore information.

I'm sure you could easily swap a b-series motor and tranny into a 7th gen civic engine bay......

yea im sure it will swap over with all the wiring issues plus the fact a B series motors have a distributor, and they dont use a returnless fuel system either.

Next on a GSR the vtec kicks in at 4700rpms and the 2nds Open up at 5700rpms. GSR's run a dual plenium intake manifold thats why it looks *** backwards compared to a B16/ITR intake manifold

A/C and power steering have not been lost due to space concerns. The A/C compressor and power steering pump are still there; they have to be there since the RSX uses a single belt to power all accessories + the alternator. There is actually a ton of room left in my engine bay, enough to add even a condenser + A/C lines to the evaporator and everything necessary to get A/C functional again.

But right now I don't have the time or feel like spending the $$ to make custom hoses to hook them up.

94-95 is the same, it has the OBD I ECU, it's the least restrictive to modifications.

VTEC actually does engage at 4400 RPM's and the secondaries open up at 5750 RPM'S, this is contorled by an Intake Air Bypass valve.
