1) Show me a GSR swap for $1500 and ill show you a stolen swapOriginally Posted by djmaddmartin
i have bought swaps that cheap out of wrecked cars, but they are few and far between. The cheapest you can find a GSR swap CONSISTENTLY is between $2000-3000. Remember , this guy may not have the connections we have, and if he goes to a shop, they arent going to sell him a gsr swap for $1500.
2) No $1500 turbo kit will make 300whp on a stock GSR. if you build some junk DIY kit, maybe , but i doubt it. the injectors and intake manifold needed to flow 300whp cost $500 alone. The turbo will run $500. break down YOUR B series 300whp turbo kit for me please, cause if you can do it for $1500 im in the wrong business.![]()

This is right at $3500 and includes fuel management and a setup that is capible of 250whp (300 w/550cc inj). This is a similar setup that we have put on about 6 b-series. on a D series it can make 220whp (VTEC) non VTEC (200whp) easily.
Also, a 300whp stock GSR is not as easy as it seems. A bolt on Drag kit or Rev Hard will only make about 250-275whp. I don't care what people on H-T say, bring it to Atlanta and we will see. You will have to have at least 550cc injectors, and 3in exhaust.
Finally, about the Civic with the NSX motor. This was a FWD drag car that was in a magazine about 3-4 years ago. It was a EK hb that was chop top. D16civic was right.![]()
