The Official "Transferable parts from GE8 to GD3" Thread

the r18 will work with the gd3 but you will lose low end torque. A sorta local member did this mod a few years ago and the top end pulled ok but he lost lots of low end drivability. Going to 55mm would help out if you were boosted but not so much for na.
look at the crz dyno graph to give you and idea of probably how the gd3 will respond. Granted this is an unturned dyno.
solid green is with the ge8 swapped plenum, dotted green is stock, red is with IMA activated.

Yes it was still drivable but it would bog down and hesitate when he stomped on it compared to stock. All this was butt dyno however so I have no actual dyno chart to show a low end torque drop.

Just waiting for my intake manifold gaskets to come in. Currently making 103.51 WHP with my automatic and will be doing a simple before and after dyno with JUST the upper IM for a more accurate comparison.

I'm guessing he needed the A7 (GE8) 55mm throttle body too. IIRC, the L15A1 (GD3) 50mm TB has different coolant routing and doesn't line up. Hope you get it sorted and get mad gainz!
#372
The flanges where both manifolds meet do not line up, with the GE8's being narrower than the GD3's. I'm suspecting that the GE8's lower IM needs to be used in conjunction with its matching upper manifold OR needs to have a different lower IM fabbed up.

all are 10.3" rotors, same as almost every Civic, Del Sol, non Type R Integra

I was ordering some Endless rotors and I just wanted confirmation from someone else. Thanks guys!

Does anyone know if the footwell/ambient lights from the GE fit on the GD?
