omg this thread is filled with nothing but BS.

an H22A in a civic is JUST FINE for daily driving. you CAN take corners with an H22A swap in your civic as long as you take the time to work on your SUSPENSION to handle it.....A&J Racing had a 96+ hatch with an h22a....they RACED it on a COURSE quite a few times.....no its not ideal but its not impossible.

GSR motor....there are 92 and 93's...B17's.
there are 94 and 95's...B18C1's...OBDI
there are 96-01's....B18C1....OBDII
there are usdm version, there are jdm versions.
difference in power, torque, compression, etc....

a B18C1 is not really SUPERIOR to a B16A at all....it just has more displacement/power.

If you really want to do something that'll make you faster than a B16A, B18C1, B18C5, H22A....do a K20A swap.
20lbs lighter than a B series - power of an H22A.....6spd, you cant go wrong.

of course its expensive(very) and well, as everyone else said....you need to do more research before diving into something like this. Especially a K20A swap because it is a wiring NIGHTMARE.
