does any1 know wat engine is in the 98 civic type R??

samson

I don't even know what a VIRS is. LOL. Are you European? Type R is in the Type R b18c5. Anything can fit it just depends how much you are willing to do to make it fit.

Not always, young grasshoppa. Other examples include the b18c and b18c6.

i dnt wanna go bigger than 1600 cc coz insurance cost too much here!!
wat can u sugesst me??

Well, depending on how much money have to play with..

The Type R engine is a 1.8 DOHC Vtec so I'm going to assume that it is too big for your liking..

If you're gonna go B series, maybe ****** up a b16
