Anything is possible if you're willing to spend enough! I assume you are talking about going with the B18C1 from the Integra GSR but it would cost way more than the car would end up being worth (unless you mean to do it yourself) and I'd personally rather just find a good deal on a 2000 Integra GSR with the B18C3 in it.

Check out ericthecarguy.com and ask him on the forum. He's had a ton of experience with the Integra and engine swaps (not sure if he's swapped engines on the Integra but he knows a ton about the car).

You also need to account for going from OBDI to OBDII. Just extra sensors and such. You need read up about these swaps. They are fairly simple, but have a few tricks/quirks to them. Nothing that hasn't been done a billion times over the last decade by countless enthusiasts. I suggest you search up on Honda-tech.com. You'll find more information there than you could possibly shake a stick at.

I've never heard of the B18C3 in North America, even when I was huge into the civic and integra scene. In my recollection there were only two engine options: B18C1 for all GSRs, and the B18C5 for all Type Rs, in North America. I believe the C3 was available in other markets, but not here.

I thought they put the C3 in the 2000 GSR here in the States because of this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_B_engine
B18C3[[url=https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Honda_B_engine&action=edit&section =23]edit]
  • DOHC VTEC
  • Found in: Acura Integra Asian market, USDM Acura Integra GSR (2000 model)
    • Power: 190 PS (139 kW; 187 hp) @ 7600 rpm & 128 lb·ft (174 N·m) @ 7500 rpm
    • Compression: 10.8:1
    • Bore: 81mm
    • Stroke: 87.2mm
I'm no Honda engine designation expert though; that's what I get for trusting info off Wikipedia!
