so if I went with a b16 would I want shift linkage out of a b16 then? or would i still use gsr shift linkage?

u never said what you wanna do with it? that helps a lot cuz u cant have a 200 hp n/a b18 with an ls tranny and you cant have a 500hp b18 with an itr tranny....it depepends on what ya wanna do

n/a itr or b16
boost gsr.

you should decide on which motor(N/A or turbo) and what kind of driving the car will be used for(daily driving, circuit or drag racing). There are many variables when choosing which tranny.

jedi_first_degree

this car will be a daily driver/ auto cross. i will be keeping it na. I've got a boost car for drag and v8 killing.

i'm trying to keep on a budget on this swap for now. from what i've been hearing from people the itr will be the best for what i'm doing but i havn't found one for under 1200. what would be the cheapest route for now untill i can buy an itr?

get a b16 tranny, either from a 99-00 si, from a del sol or from a jdm supplier.

cranberry

get any hydro b16 tranny will be the closest you can get.

peacexisxfree

what's you budget like? Go for the itr if you can afford it. I love my LSD...

HatchEh2

I thought the gsr and b16 trannys had the same gear ratios? maybe i was wrong.. ya learn something everyday...

so which is shorter?

jedi_first_degree

well I would like to find a tranny for 800 or less. the cheapest I have found a gsr tranny for is 1000 and the cheapest for an itr is 1200

From what i understand the b16 trannys have smaller gears.

2cool4school

itr or b16

chad

b16 tranny with itr lsd and a 4.9 final drive....


don't argue with me....that is the best tranny for any honda b series engine cept for a b20a5

I have a B18C1 GSR engine with a B-16 Trans in my 95 Del Sol. I like the power but at highway speeds (65mph) my rpm's are running higher than normal for me... Granted this is my first modded Honda but 3100 rpm seems a little high for me... What do you all think?

doctorake

I think you should not bump an 8 year old thread.

twowshores

Sorry. I didn't mean to offend anyone. I am new to this forum and didn't realize this thread was that old until you pointed it out. I will be more careful in the future...

doctorake

Next time just start a new thread.

This is the transmission you have, very normal.
