Honda Integra DC2 Type R 1.8L VTEC Engine

This is a JDM B18C 1.8L DOHC VTEC engine pulled from a Honda Integra DC2 Type R, built around a hand-ported head, lightweight pistons and aggressive cams rather than a standard Integra's internals, which is what separates a Type R-spec B18C from the regular GS-R version of the same family.

What's included

The package includes the intake and exhaust manifolds, throttle body, alternator and distributor; a Type R ECU is included only if shown with this particular unit.

What makes this engine distinct

Honda's JDM spec rates this engine at 200 HP at 8,000 RPM with a redline of 8,500 RPM, well above what a US-spec B-series typically reaches, and that top-end pull is the main reason enthusiasts seek out this specific DC2 Type R variant over other B18 engines.

Who it suits

It's built for swaps into a Civic, Integra, CRX or EK chassis where the goal is sustained high-RPM performance rather than low-end torque, whether that's a street build or a track-focused project.

Common questions

Does it come with the ECU? Only if shown as included with this specific unit; confirm with us before ordering if the ECU is required for your build.

What's different about a Type R B18C versus a standard one? The hand-ported head, lighter pistons and more aggressive camshafts, which push the redline and output above a standard B18C.
