So the ls tranny sucks can you guys tell me some better tranny options and how much they cost around? Also what kind of trannies are best for what type of racing/dd etc...I hear the itr tranny is real nice but im wondering if its worth the money. thanks.

Expect to pay 500 up for a B16/GSR tranny. I paid 650 for a mint GSR tranny w/ low miles. ITR trannies start at around 1000, and can be had from the dealer for 1700. For less than the price of an ITR, you can get a GSR/B16 and drop in a ITR/CTR or a Quaife LSD, both of which are helical.

thanks. So what are pros/cons between gsr and a b16 tranny? Is one better for drag/autox?

B16 trannies have shorter gearing than a GSR tranny. That means you'll accelerate faster and be at a higher RPM while cruising in 5th gear. Obviously your fuel economy will hurt a little. B16 tranny is the way to go with your LS.

I'm really happy with GS-R gearing on my Turbo LS that I use for road course racing. Type-R/Si gearing would be too short for me, but probably ok for NA LS'es.
