the question is why?
Now that I think about it, that would be pretty hard to do. Are they even close length-wise?
Hmm..
They won't work since our bore is ~83mm(more or less).
stock bore is 82.7mm
why do you want type-r pistons/?? just get some custom diamond pistons if you need something other than stock.
Diamond will make you some sexy high compression forged pistons for about $500 ish. if you are going that way you should get some nice rods too. for rods get an LS integra (non vtec) rod. the wrist pin will need to be 21mm on the piston to be compatible with the rods, so make sure you tell diamond that when you get the pistons.
good luck with the na build.you won't be able to swap in a b16 easily unless you can fab.
yeah high compression turbo is the way to go...89 turbo has like 10.5 to 1 and is making like 230whp
1989 Honda Accord LX-i
B18c1 swap since 7/2011
175whp and 132tq
Redzone tuned
naw... i won't be needing a turbo for this build-or any other.
