Rcj, i know honda, i deal with them all day, and i will be highly impressed if you pull a low 13' second pass. I'm sorry but i completly doubt it. I have nothing agaisnt anything your saying, and you know i'm never one to disrespect, but bone stock gsr with neo tunning, in a del sol. You will not pull a low 13, other wise everyone would have that swap done.

Do alittle research on actual times that people are nailing with that swap, and your going to be quite surprised. A few months back we swapped a GSR b18 c1 obviously j-spec with a type R lsd transmission, every bolt on you could think of, including 4-1 header, CTR cams, fidanza flywheel, 4 puck unsprung, Skun2 intake manifold, with match ported 60mm throttle body. Full magnoflow exhaust, and a chipped p28. In a gutted ef hatch. Mind you it has a sunroof but still, the best time i ran was a 13.3.

You have to realise, yeah the GSR comes with a 180 hp, but it's to the crank. Hondas because their front wheel drive loose alot of horse power through the drivetrain, and foward of motion rule. Those guys that are nailing high twelves, I can assure you they have 200-220 WHP. Now add some spray to the gsr, and you'll fo sure hit the low 13's, but now were talking about power adders.

Again, i dont mean to stir you up, or poke fun of, but trust when i say your not going to be making the numbers you claim to be.


Gus
my friend has a B16 in his del sol, bolt ons and maybe spray ran high 12's also the C1 is NOT J-spec, J-Spec would be B18C (nothing after) a B18C5 is a USDM Type R.

Bruno, here's a pic of a GSR swap vs a Del Sol w/ the factory B16 (http://videos.streetfire.net/video/b...fa0131bef6.htm) just to pit it into prospective of the difference between the b16 and b18 gsr.

David - i'm also curious where u have seen an s2k swap on a del slow.

Sebz - i don't think i understand that you mean... bolt in a motor and run mid - high 13's. Add some simple bolt-ons such as exhaust, intake, header, intake manifold and cams and i'm running loww 13's. Either JR Supercharger or custom Turbo kit and i'm in the mid - low 12's, w/ slicks i'm running 11's probably.

No offence but I still think this is a HUGE mistake. esspecailly if this is still your daily driver. I bet youll end up being dissapointed in the car at some point not at first obviously but shortly after driving it youll start thinking it over. (ya know like me with My Evo, and since your the only person I know who is more indecisive than me)

From experience a low 12 sec car is no walk in the park to just cruise with. It is a PITA. im sure the honda will be a little easier for the fact it is not going to be 400HP but it will be light and FWD so ya you might as well stay stock and drive it in snow cause the traction will be jjust as bad.

Im glad he is into what he is doing. I know how for it is to do this stuff. but after $6500 into my motor I am already used to it and it feels slow to me again at times. Although the cold weather here is CRAZY. my car churps second gear with granny shifts in the cold weather lol
