Its a little more then that. thats more of a LSvtec.

What you need for a poor man's type R

B18 block
P73 Pistons (optional, but best choice)
Vtec Head (B16, or B18c R(5) are the best)
Type R cams
P73 ECU (which I am sellling...damn 50 post minimum, lol)

Cheapest route is B18B block, B16a head, Type R cams, and the ECU.

If you go with an LS block it's not a poor mans ITR, its LS/Vtec. The B18C1 block is the correct way to do the poor mans ITR. Vtec head should be the PR3 from the B16 and ITR, not the P72 GSR head.

Go with the JDM P73-00 pistons, not the P73-A0 USDM ITR pistons. Will be about a .5 difference in compression. If you want even higher compression get the P30 CTR pistons, should be about .2 higher then the JDM ITR pistons.

Only diff between LS, GSR, and Type R bottom end is pistons, crank, and rods. blocks are the same.
