I was wondering what sort of parts would I need to rebuild my transmission? I was hoping for performance parts but the only thing I was able to pull up is the clutch and flywheel. Are there any other parts I would need to rebuild the transmission?

Well why are you rebuilding it? Is your shift fork bent/broke or do you just want to change your gear ratio? And if so longer or shorter?

my transmission is a bit loose. not only that I wanna get a performance into it. I wanna start with the transmission and then with the engine. I wanna acceleration faster and get the most performance.

Brian long time man.

The guys to ask is Bense, or Mista Bone. Those guys are D series trans gods (at least in my eyes). Theres alot of different little things you could do with the trans. Whats your goals for the trans?

hey man, yea it has been awhile. the car still runs well, since then my dad replaced the engine with a zc engine but left the same transmission that you put in for me. I think the tranny is a bit loose since i first got it. What I want from the transmission is the most performance what ever that is. I just want a good stable tranmission.

By loose do you mean the shifter feel? It could be the bushings? If you want a stiffer shifter feel then you could get some ES bushings that helps it alot.

As for performance:

You do know that the shorter the gears the higher the RPM at the lower speed right?

Say your at 4500rpm @ 80mph, that could easily turn into 5500rpm @ 80 mph but quicker acceleration. What i would probably do would be 1, 2, 3 from a EX/SI 4th from a DX and 5th from a VX. That way you would get good acceleration with a good cruising gas saver.

I agree with him!! My friend and i rebuilt my tranny with a short final dive and i hate taking her on the interstate! Caz im allways in V-tec!! But i dont like doing the speed limit.. i just wana go fast! and im sure u do to!
