si trans vs. type-r trans. differences?
the 2000 si i just purchased from some douchebag on ebay has a busted trans and needs to be replaced. they want 1400 for a si trans and new clutch kit installed. would i be able to find a si trans for cheaper? also, i may be able to get a type-r trans, used, from another friend. what are the differences between the two transmissions?

A ITR tranny will run you $800-$1400 used, a si tranny (depending on year and lsd) will run you $300-$800. These are just rought estimates, i'd suggest finding yourself and used tranny and installing it yourself. You can always have a buddy with experience help you out.
differences between ITR and Si trans, ITR has slightly shorter gears and has a better final drive. Also the ITR (U.S spec/JDM spec, Si jdm spec has LSD a option) comes with LSD. Research a little before you go ahead and spend $1400.

The USDM ITR/96 spec JDM ITR/CTR and Si trannies have the same exact gearing and FD.

I depending on where you are you can find a decent b16 tranny for 500. But if I were you I would go with a unit from a JDM ITR if you plan on going all motor. You can find them for something around 1300. **** Im looking for one myself.

Re: (American.Graffiti)
this is just going to be my daily driver to keep miles off my truck. im gonna do some bolt on's (short ram intake, throttle body, intake manifold, header, high-flow cat and catback and maybe some plugs and wires) but not going all out. just using it as a fun car for fuel economy. are the internals any different between the trans' (what the components are made of)?

Someone detailed it in the ITR forum a few years ago. If I remember correctly, the ITR trannies have multiple synchos on some of the gears. They also have a different ring gear pattern.

Yes there are differences between the transmissions. They are few but significant in their own ways that vary from gears, final drives and limited slip differentials. I am unsure of the exact specs but if you are interested search on here or google and there are charts available that highlight each attribute.

Re: (American.Graffiti)
i say look. i got a 98 spec type r lsd tranny for 1300. and it comes with a warranty!! garuanteed no grinds or pop puts and garuanteed 35000 miles or less... but i must warn you, i drove around with no 5th gear for 8 months till i found this one. everyone else wanted 1475 or a little more AND NO WARRANTY.
HAHA now i got my tranny but no clutch for it............. any one selling a 6puck no springs stage 2 clutch?

Re: (civic2489)
USDM and JDM ITR trans both come equipped with LSD, a JDM B16 MAY come with LSD depending on which one you find. but an SI trans, no LSD. If you're going for all motor, go with a JDM ITR trans.
