This gsr is going to look awesome in the coupe

[ls94civic]

Saturday i started to pull the 96 gsr out of my brothers wrecked integra. it really went decent. i had a little help but it wasn't like i had another mechanic helping. It was just another pair of hands. I had the motor out in three hours and ill be honest i was pretty hungover from some fun on Friday night. there is gonna be a full rebuild of the motor and i will be taking plenty of pics. So here are some pics of the pull....

Why did you start another thread. I thought you had a build thread going.

 

[ls94civic]

I don't think it was a build thread but I could be wrong

 

[fionntan]

Oh sorry I thought thats what your other thread was. So is this the build thread?

 

[ls94civic]

Yes sir it is well the beginning of the build !!! It's gonna be some work but it's gonna be worth it

 

[fionntan]

Well good luck. I am in for the read.

So the motor I bought is stamped b18c does that make it jdm ???

 

[CAFROG]

Yes it does mean its a JDM version. USDM version is B18C1. By the intake manifold.....I know its a GSR motor and Not a ITR.

I've looked around for a answer about this and haven't found anything!! So I'm gonna pick your brains, are all thbinternals the same as the usdm version?? Like gaskets, pistons,rings etc... I found a rebuild kit online for the b18c1 I was wondering if this would work??? can't seem to find a straight answer......

im gonna move this to auto multi media since its a build thread..

 

[ls94civic]

Thank you Matt

 

[ls94civic]

Bump need a answer to mu question

 

[CAFROG]

Yes you can buy B18C1 parts for your motor rebuild

 

[ls94civic]

That's good news!! I'm gonna be ordering some parts in a few days so I can get this rebuild underway!

take pics

Btw while we were stripping the teg I found the paperwork for the motor that says it had 55,000 mikes on it when it was put in there back in 2009 so Ive decided I'm gonna do the waterpump timing belt oil pumP.. I'm gonna check the head and pistons and walls for problems. I figured out since the motor was put in 2009 it's only had 30,000 miles!!! That kinda stuff makes me happy to hear seeings how I thought it had 185;000

 

[fionntan]

If you are doing a rebuild anyway, then you should do all that stuff. There is no reason to half-ass it.

 

[ls94civic]

I got thinkin about it and I'm gonna go threw the whole engine!! It just makes sense!! Is there certain brands out there I should stay away from bor replacement parts???

 

[dc4dude]

i say just go oem as far as gaskets go... cant go wrong there...

 

[ls94civic]

Just got back from getting the ecu!!! Pics up soon
