On the engine it is stamped on the block next to the gearbox on the distributor side of the engine
oh ! sweet thanks... and just to make sure... it will say b18cr on the block next to the gearbox..?
thanks for your help any way..
Yip will do if thats what it is.
thanks man... you are the only person that seems to answer my stupid questions here....
:wink:
B18CR's from Japan are stamped "B18C"
USDM Type R motors say "B18C5"
and type R gearboxes are S80 (There are other sorts of S80's around also)
Do some searching to find how out a motor stamped B18C is actually a Type R motor.
yeah i gave been looking around for what is the diference... all i could find out was the the plenum of the b18c is different. other than that no major differences...![]()
![]()

intake different yes, and the head,
plenty of tiny differences.
Im sure you know know what is a real type R and what isn't when you see it
yeah man ..... im just making sure... as im going down to Hamilton this weekend to pick up my engine & gearbox.... and just making final inquiries as to how to tell if it is dead too.
As the guy who is selling me the engine wrote off his ek civic he had the conversion in.. he can't start it as there is no loom it got stolen... so yeah... i was just trying to think of a few ways of telling if the motor has seized or anything else is wrong with it... all i could come up with was :
compression test... wretchet on crank and turn haha
......but not as accurate as ( correct me if im wrong....) using a compressor in the cylindar and listening for any air running out of the intake .....
Yeh search around on the net and honda-tech.com for how to tell if the motor is geniune.
Checking if the gearbox is a real type R one: Must say S80 on it, and you should be able to see through the diff where the axels go in, make sure there is no pin obstructing the view (meaning its a LSD)
Y80 is a long gear ration DC2 regular B18C box
Type R's also have a PR3 head, B18C standard P72.

Yours will say B18C something else, I dunno. Maybe B18C6 have a look.
Or maybe they just used the B18C stamped block also
that is great info... thanks guys... keep it coming haha
bit of green paint by the dizzy on the head, head uses exhaust bolts and 2 studs for the exhaust flange, (B16a head uses mostly studs for the exhaust)
Im pretty sure the starter motor is different but I can't remember how. Lighter or smaller or just different i dunno.
headers if still stock use a stainless lower peice and a cast top piece, 98 uses stainless 4-1.
maybe you could put the engine number into hondas new system that I have just been told about and it may say what car it was from.
im pretty keen to know more about that honda serial number thing.... it will help a lot if i get more info about it.... any way thanks man!
