I think it is more of a hassle than it is worth. Hasport sells the adapter for $350 I believe, but it won't be as nice as just getting the hydro tranny. Full obd1 B16 swaps can be had for $1900, are you thinking about just getting an obd0 one cuz theyre cheaper?

no i already have an sir1 swap. I already converted it to obd1. Just was thinking about if i wanted to use that tranny or not. although I really do like the b16's tranny its just starting to seem like it's gonna be more of a hassle than it's worth.

No hassle. We had one in our coupe for almost 3 years, but I finally took it out because I got ahold of an ITR LSD tranny and threw that in .

Used the HCP EG-18C kit (which we carry ) and it never had a "dead pedal" feel not one time. Even took it to the track a few times, and with me launching the car at around 4000 rpms, no problems on the track or afterwards. Of course I'd go with a hydro tranny for different reasons but if you really want to go with a cable setup, it'll work w/out any problems. Here are some pics, as I have more but don't feel like photoshopping them to size.....'





I also have one from looking down on the motor from up top but that really doesn't show much since it looks like any other transmission on there.
