How much for a rebuilt tranny and do you think I need it?
Hello fellows,
My brother will give his car to me this November when I get my license and his MaD 3 GeAr aint working. It scratches pretty bad when you shift into 3rd. He has a Gs-r tranny with a B18c5 in a Ek. Should I rebuild the whole tranny or get a Type R one with a LSD? I am only 16 and kind of confused on what to do. So any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jason

First, I'd try a fluid change and see how it does after a couple weeks. It might "fix" it or make it more useable.
If you get a new transmission, though, I'd say get a B16 or GSR and throw in a Quaife or KAAZ LSD.

My brother added 2 1/2 bottles of redline tranny fluid couple of months ago and this just happened like a month ago. Do any of ya know the price for a Type R tranny? I think I will bring it to Jotech in Garland, Tx and let them do it. I heards its around 1k - 1.5k $$.
Thanks,
Jason

sounds like you're not mechanically incline I suggust you take it to a shop to get it done. that's the best way for YOU to not **** up you tranny.

Re: (XViEtBoiX)
Lets make this problem more easy on you. Since you got a Type-R motor with no Type-R tranny in the first-place, now's the time to get a Type-R. Hey, you got a car for free with the motor that has a busted up tranny. Just start saving, Type-R trannys run from $1,800-$2,300. Just search.

It's easy. Remove the drain bolt with a 3/8 socket wrench and let drain. Put drain bolt back on, remove fill bolt or speed sensor and fill it up with Honda MTF. There's a picture floating around somewhere, or you can go get the Haynes manual for an Integra from your local library.

Re: (clm)
Just for fun I asked the Honda dealer about a tranny rebuild for a SOHC tranny...
...$3500 for parts and labor.
Still wanna rebuild your tranny?
