Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

GSR... hands down.

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

which has more hp

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

The GSR has more horsepower. Search a little bit. This info isn't too hard to find.

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

thanks

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

No problem. :)

VTEC> NON VTEC

if you only offered him 300. something is wrong with you......the cheapest legit gsr ive seen is 2g's. 300 maybe for the b20. or buy both. put the gsr head on the b20 block.

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

being that del slo (er was that del sol??? ;D) are lightweight I would go with the gsr, all that b20 is gonna do is spin the tires (not that the gsr wont), but want as much horsepower as you can get and stay away from torque... since the car is so light it doesnt need much torque to get moving and the b20 is a torque monster

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

I thought del sols were heavier than EG's? Also, the 135 or whatever crank torque of a B20 won't spin the tires unless you want them to. Torque monster? The difference is less than 10ft-lbs.

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

well it's entirely possible that I can be confused at the weight of these cars as I only play with second to fourth generation civics, but even a d16a1 will smoke the hell out of the tires on my buddies 86 crx

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

my 97 Sol with me in it weighed the same as a 99 civic SI with my friend in it. there not that heavy compaired to a teg or a full size civic.

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

isn't the si the heaviest civic?

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

Bah, the sol is lighter than a civic coupe or sedan, and comperable to a hatch depending on what you have in it. eg B series engines are heavier than D's, AC compressor, air bags, etc etc.

CRX's are lighter than sols because of the crash bars and the removable targa, plus sound deadening and all that other stuff.

Everything else except for an insight or a city is heavier.

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

IMO you wanted both.
hands him 600 cash, build a B20vtec. then sell the gsr block while you still make $$$$. ;D
oh well that`s if he only wants 600 bucks. :P

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

tell me where this is...ill come there and out-bid you for both

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

hes my neighbor and too late the gsr is in my garage

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

how much did you get it for? 300? i bet its stolen if it was that cheap or he was a complete moron....

Re:gsr vs. crv dohc
 

yup
