1994 Honda Civic GSR Swap - Horsepower S7, E3
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 бер 2024
- We're doing an engine swap in a 1994 Honda Civic GSR. It was built with an $8,500 budget but now it's time to up the power. We're taking out the 1.5 four banger and swapping in a 1.8 twin cam GSR engine from an '95 Acura Integra.

POV: Its 2003, you drive a single cam civic and dream of doing a DOHC VTEC swap. You just watched Fast and Furious last night and now you're watching this on Saturday morning. Life is good
Man do I miss the era! This was the time to be alive in car culture every Friday and Saturday night, cruising the strip with your friends, I’d give anything to go back and live those nights for a weekend
yep remember epi
Cool bro,but im planning on doing a car club base of 90 - 2000 jdm fast and the furious trylogy nfs style for people who miss this time
Back then was good times. B16's complete swaps where 600 dollars.
@@proepicgamemasterWhere ya located?
@2367rguzman and the older civics were more fun the newer civics are overrated and boring
Dear God I remember watching this show every Saturday morning growing up. Trucks as well with Stacey David. Ahh memories.
Some good memories for damn sure
I was literally sitting here, remembering watching Stacy David on Sundays. He gave me the confidence as a young man to give it a try. I’m 45 and I still work in the auto repair industry.
Same. Its much more enjoyable when they take a commercial break, they are immediately back, without having to sit through all the commercials.
Man this takes me back to being a kid and watching this with my dad
The 90s and early 2000 was a golden era
Damn, I remember those video on TV when I was in high school, it was so cool, I miss 90’s on TV.😁👍
Probably the engine from my stolen GSR.
😂😂😂
Damn😪 lmao
Nah bro, I got that one 💪
From 23 years ago?
Check the Vin yo!
its more difficult to find engines like these now prices are getting higher too, but K is the trend nowadays
I still prefer b and h series over k I just like the nostalgia from the 90s that's just me though
@@Jac735 same thats why I want to keep my b18b1 but at the same time things are just getting expenive for them or if I need parts I cant find them in junkards in my area
H22 VTEC Prelude engine was the “big block” Honda engine back in those days.
Such a classic episode! Thanks for uploading!
We are so glad that you like it! Thanks for watching!
Man, I’m glad I’m old. Three to $4000 for the engine now I think I spent little over 2500 to swap the GSR transmission and engine into my EG hatchback about 15 years ago prices on these motors gone insane. I dated a girl back in 2008. We swapped the F20 C into her Toyota Corolla for about $6000.
Same here @43yo I’ve done this numerous times I got into Hondas when I was 16 so around 1996 and it gave me my career! Doing this swap actually was my first taste of tuning, then Went to work for American Honda! Now 20 Hondas and 15 swaps later I still keep a toy or 2 in the yard to hit some curvy backroads of North Carolina! There was no greater feeling than that ride in your first swapped Hb or coupe, it was worse than a drug habit, spending every dime possible to get parts or replace tires, but I would t change a thing well maybe I would have kept a SI or 2 bone stock and put them up Function before Fashion always!
Old head here too: Things have definitely went up but only a little bit if you check it with inflation calculator. Still cheap to run and maintain though the K is the way right now unless seeking oldschool B series for (insert reason)
I think its because things have moved onto K series, and the B engines are relatively old, more rare, and less supported. Support goes where the money flows.
@@AnotherMotorist I'm not into Hondas anymore funny because in the beginning I always liked toyotas until I got a 97 sedan civic than hooked it up since sedans way back then had no love until they started going in style plus when they saw what I had people followed suit but anyways I like the b series alot better and H series I feel like it's more simpler that's just me though but good opinion I'm back into toyotas though i Also got into muscle cars
Bruh, homeboy's mullet is KICKIN! I did this same swap into my 1997 EJ8 Civic coupe with a fully built PR3 CTR head, Skunk2 Stage 3 NA cams, fully modified valvetrain and S2 LMAs (Lost Motion Assemblies), a S2 Ultra Race 3.5L intake manifold, a S2 90mm throttle body, along with WAY too many mods to list in a UA-cam comment. Tuned on a P28 ECU with Hondata S300 V3 with a Rywire tuck engine harness and a modified 1.06 AR exhaust housing Garrett GTS3582 dual ball bearing turbo with a billet compressor wheel at 34 psi it made 709 wheel horsepower through a GSR trans with a LS 5th gear and a modified OBX LSD. Talk about a bad Honda. My buddy across town had a EG hatch with a B20VTEC that made 832 whp at 38 psi.
Whoa, we didn’t ask you that.
@@fogtown3027 right who is reading all that 😂
Aw you weren’t cool if you didn’t have a spoon engine with t66 turbos, and a motec exhaust.
You’re not making that much power on stock transmissions.
@@fogtown3027.🤣🤣🤣
@10:42 I don't think I ever used those brackets when doing b series swaps back in the day LOL great episode, really took me back
These guys make every job look super easy. Easy to understand. Big fan.
Love seeing these TB videos. Didn’t understand much of that they were doing when the video first came out and I was much younger, but it’s interesting to rewatch and understand now
Man I remember doing all these engine swaps and working on these Civics and Hondas. Especially the GSR Integra motor
I used to watch this show back in the day when I was a young. When this episode aired, I was blowin away that they would even consider doing a B swap on there show considering they were muscle car guys. Its scary how nostalgic this had become, ha.
I miss the 90's!
Serious throwback ! Thanks for brining back some wholesome Sunday morning memories! Haha
Watching this makes me really great full for my power tools and ratcheting wrenchs.
I wanna see that ealier episode where they build this coupe….
To the people saying it's a lot of work and money for 40 ekstra hp. You must have never experienced twin cam VTEC from a B series engine, it feels like even more power and the crossover is so awesome!
I notice they omitted removing the "bitch-pin" aka the shift linkage roll-pin and retaining band @2:06. Simple with a purpose made punch, but a pain otherwise. It does not come right out as shown. I forgot how they made everything look easy and omitted all the useful bits.
I remember doing a JUN flywheel on my dual cam back in the day... Made a HUGE difference with the super light one...
You can literally use the gsr factory harness and plug it right into the civic chassis harness and not have to wire anything
Wait really does tht also work for a b16a?
If its lhd not rhd from an importer
I have this same swap in my 95 4dr civic it definitely pulls hard. Good luck finding this swap now days.
I remember them building this car initially, asking with many other ones too. Man i miss those days growing watching this show.
I remember saving up for 2 months every penny to replace the engine in my EG hatch.
Couldn’t afford a twin cam but my single cam Vtech swap was a hit in my little town haha!
They probably hate this 😂
I watched this show on a Sunday morning in the late90’s as a teenager and thought it was stupid. I loved my American cars. All these years later. I’m a Honda master tech by trade..
That’s nice you guys uploaded it
The good old days. Very early 00's, watching the powerblock before going out to mow the grass on a sat morning. They made like 3 episodes just doing brakes on that civic.
seems like alot of work to make only 170hp. great work fellas!!!
i agree, v8 rwd swap that shit at that point..lol
chuck and his "renegade" hair 😂🤣
lol Lorenzo lamas twin brother
@@FreddyFunderbunz the other guy, bobby sixkiller
That hair gave Chuck 3 extra horsepower in whatever car he drove.
i had a 92 with an integra swap. thing was awesome
GL with that crank pulley bolt. Say your prayers, pack a lunch, and get the torch ready.
I miss this show.
After this episode was over they built three more civics just like it and went out and started jacking semi trucks!
This is it people!!!!! The green civic GSR Swap!!!!!
❤Thanks🎉
Love to see these older episodes!!
Along with the timing belt, prudent to replace the cam seals as well
Was thinking same thing...why swap cam.seals when you should be replace them with new saels
The good ole days
Couldn’t stop smh 🤦🏻♂️ and puking 🤮 watching this 😂
They make everything look so easy which makes me wonder if they actually did all the work themselves
man i miss these days. im trying to build a g2b civic and parts are now so much. i now understand muscle car guys because some parts are hard to fine. it took me 6 months to find a good oem fender for my 90 civic. restamped never fit right
Powernation, it's like HGTV but for men.
I remember watching this and supertuner tv every weekend growing up
We need the full build series of the first part of the build 👊💪
Those front brakes are mint 👌
Ahhh b18c1 and all its glory
About to do this swap with a stock CRX I picked up recently for $500.
This makes me really miss my B16a2 swapped EJ1...
They think you'd be lying if you would have told them those engines can make 1000 + horsepower back then 😂
Wow we picked up an extra whopping 13 hp.
The pioneering days of how the K,H,J, and F swaps began.
I used to watch this show in 90 on weekends Saturday morning did you guys see how old the computer monitor is.
Did ya dig this video from the attic? lol
When done, go video drag race a SR model 3
I use to do a swap by myself in 4hrs. If I had to deal with the donor car of course it would take a little longer
I love Honda's
Are you dropping the videos since they been swarming all over the internet
UA-cam says this was posted "7 days ago"...
Did they wait 40 years after recording to post it?
I miss Joe he was one of my favorites besides Jesse and Stacy
Thanks a lot for the upload 😊🙌🙌
This was when Hank’s weekend was ruined.
It's funny to see that cheap aftermarket no name lights still fit & look as terrible as they did back then.
FYI. There are two connectors that will plug into two different sensors. Ask me how I know.
Admin, is there more from this specific Civic series? I’ve been searching for years!
Let er eat!
MMMBahhh!
Only 90k budget I wish I had that.
Damm i member this episode back in the day.
me too
Awesome, k-swap next please chuck 😂
Yooo, they did a Civic? That's was up❤
Alrighty! I'm next! Put me in! 🚘👍
Matt was on a mission 😂
Old really old still cools as esf . Thanks for all ❤ the years power nation!
The engine that still holds the outlaw record
take me back......
Tuner era lol
6:08 Re-using the old camshaft oil seals is NOT a good idea.
If u watch the video chuck showing if don’t have much to spent and all your went to the motor and cam and clutch and timeing chain then if the camshaft oil seals are still good on the motor your swapping with your old motor with then it’s ok because when you have the money to get new then you can buy new camshaft oil seals when u have the money
It's just a honda.
You can see the pain in Chucks eyes as he does this work
@@MidwestRainstorms thanks for alerting us to your presence!
i seen this when it first came out.
Ahhh the B series days. If they still had this Honda to do a boosted kswap! That'd be cool.
170hp is a stock gs-r motor, you did something wrong lol with intake headers and cams your at stock Hp ???
Whp vs crank hp..
@@daisbestH2B even so fwd don’t lose that much, those mods good for 20hp at least
Could of put it on the lefts behind you and dropped it out the bottom in half the time 😂 btw clutches are rated by tq not hp 🥴
Sounds like a lot of money and work for 40 horsepower
The mullet 😂.. God I’m old
Yeah but the mullet is a thing again. Not exactly sure who though it ever looked good.
Love it!
Anyone know where this car is now?
Hector has it
Damn when was this? 2001?
06 i believe
PowerNation said it was aired in 03
@speedyme200 they must have the wrong season then. Says season 7...but horsepower tv started in 99
I remember the Honda Civic Coupe build I used to watch it at 11:00 on a Saturday if I remember correctly I think that 1.5 blew up
i grew up watching these guys lie to me about how easy it is to build a fast car lmao
Sold my 1998 GS-R with leather 2 years ago and got 6500 bucks for it. Car was hitting that point where every time I got it back out something else went bad. Was a wonderful car and after significant modifications it could run as well as just about anything. Had it for 23 years but ultimately I had nowhere to keep it. Has a full turbo, built motor, the whole 9 yards with a folder full of 13 to 12.9 second time slips to prove it was fast
I’ve had my 94 GSR for 23 years also. Still on sort of daily driver duty haha. I’ve kept it mostly stock and now has 387k miles on all original drivetrain. Still crack VTEC on every on-ramp!
🫡
replace the timing belt but not the cam seals ??? hhahhahahah thats funny
Buy a kamaz 11113 (not 11116) and put there an engine like vaz-21083
I love these old school tuning videos, I really wish the they did more stuff like this nowa-days. Its mostly all custom work now, nothing wrong with that but I for the people who just like to see what bolt-on modifications they can make to their vehicle, its slim pickings. Awesome stuff!
Hey native, the 70's called and said they need their hairdo back.
Just bugs me they couldn't even clean up the transmission lol
This was before fast and furious came out
Oh how times have changed!!!!!!!!!
Back then would have never imagined I could get almost 200 hp out of an a NA NATURALLY ASPIRATED all motor D16Z6
I have a 1995 Honda Civic coupe EX TRIM MODEL unlike the DX in the video I got the single overhead cam vtec d16z6 1.6
I remember back then if you could get almost 200 hp out of a B series you felt pretty fast!
I have built plenty of b-series k-series h-series and j series over the last 20 years but it was fun to build something different this time around and challenged myself with seeing how much power I can squeeze out of an all motor d-series
I will say I have pissed off A LOT of friends and random people with their dohc dual overhead cam swaps
But now I have a k24 block and a K20 head easily 240 wheel NA all motor in my 95 Civic
And 320 HP NA 04 Honda Accord V6 6-speed manual coupe hfp Honda factory performance package with a full bolt on j series 🤘🤘🤘🤙🤙🤙🤙👌👌
Looking at that civic makes me want to rob some semi trucks, gosh this is so old lol
Sometimes you just have to live a quarter mile at a time to be free.
@@bmstylee with this build I'd live my life 16 seconds at a time
level 1 clutch.... 2024 .. Stage 1 lolz
