scuffywin

anyone??

Tippyman

Depends on what you want. Do you want a short geared, quick accelerating tranny or a long geared, top end tranny?

Ignore the bullshit about longer gears being better for boost and yada yada yada.

well when i drive my car it feels like i am going through the gears so fast and what i want is a good top end thats not to bad about acceleration, not just for a 1/4mile would like it on the street

whats the code on the gsr cable tranny a1??

JoePSI

ahh I missed 'cable'. the b17 (92-93 gsr) came with a ys1, I'm unsure if its different than the DA LS's though. I was thinking hydraulics, sorry. There is a conversion you can buy. I remember seeing it in a thread on here.

Cable GSR trannies are rare and expensive as ****.
