hiemsnox Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 easiest way to tell the difference between these two engines, i got a engine matched with a tranny and the engine code just says b18c ive read that some jdm motors dont have the last digit on them? i believe the tranny has the LSD too soooo....

SpeedDemon Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 you are correct on the engine. a regular gsr will say b18c1. not sure about the trans though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velocifero Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Type R is B18c5. It could be JDM, shouldn't the last owner know that? There might also be ECU codes stamped all around it. Like on my H22 the P13 ECU, the "P13" is stamped all over the place. That could tell you the motor too. For the trans, find the trans code and tell us. Should be in front and easy to access/see.

It could....or it could be from a GSR, I dunno. And not having the ECU doesn't matter, the stamp should be over other stuff like the head of the motor and the intake manifold, among places.

Ben. Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 JDM would be B18C. No 1 or 5. I forgot tranny code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiemsnox Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 JDM would be B18C. No 1 or 5. I forgot tranny code. so from what im hearing i have a b18c that's from the jdm type-r, ruffly 195hp at the crank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben. Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I'd assume Type R. USDM Type R at least SPECIFIES what it is. Though Rob had a JDM Gsr motor and it had the exact same engine code.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though Rob had a JDM Gsr motor and it had the exact same engine code.. hahaha now you know why im so confused with this... because im mostly sure that its JDM i dont really know exactly what it is... and what im really trying to find out what the compression ratio is of my exact motor... i know its still high because of it either being a gsr or type-r but im trying to find a safe amount of boost to run on it later down the road.

lastresort576 Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 whats the intake manifold look like? is the plenum on top or below the runners.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrIaN EG2 Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 JDM type R = red valve cover JDM SiR-G (jdm gsr) = black valve cover tranny codes are as follows:: GSR or SiR-G = Y80 Type R = S80 hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
