I have a 90 integra GS, with 140k on the motor, it runs strong but the tranny needs to be replaced. What should I do? Build this one or get a swap? turbo?

 

swap in a gsr or get another LS motor w/tranny..their cheap

 

ls/vtec or go gs-r eather way your on top personaly i would go gs-r

 

Things to think about are your budget for the project and what you intentions are (racing, daily-driver, etc.)

Also, if its your tranny that's blown, one thing to keep in mind is that you could swap it for a VTEC tranny. Your car will be much quicker, but remember that with it comes shorter gears (obviously), decreased gas mileage, and a lower top speed.

Kevin, The B18A is a strong motor. Believe me, I went from a 12sec NA 99 GSR to a beaten 91 LS. Id much rather keep the LS. Strong bottom end. Slap on a PR3 head and youre good to go. Or just rebuild an LS. Goto U Fix It Honda in Tacoma and buy an LS for 450.00. Its cheap. You dont need VTEC to go fast.

yeah figure out how much you are wanting to spend and go from there. I say if you have the money to blow get a gsr motor. but if you are low on green then stick with the ls.

 

VTEC OVERRATED!!!!!
