Doing a JDM GSR Automatic swap into an EK Auto civic. - Can someone please correct me and add on to my list below? Thanks!

What I have:
- USDM 'B' Series long block
- JDM GSR AUTO tranny
- JDM GSR AUTO ecu

Going into:
- EK Auto CIVIC


1.) Is there any extra wiring I need to do? Extra plugs I need?
2.) Will the Auto tranny mount from an Auto Integra work? What would I need for this tranny going into a Civic?
3.) Anything else I need??


THanks in advance...

He wants to be JDM!

 

BWAHAHAHAHA... cause it has JDM short gears y0!

 

Sorry I have no idea...... but I am interested to see how that (JDM GSR AUTO tranny) performs compared to a LS auto tranny?

Good luck with the swap

</TD></TR></TABLE>i think you may be the first, which is why. do a write up from your experiences though, i'm curious how it will turn out.

 

props to you dude... but why auto?
gl w/ the swap

 

check out the part number

 

chirpin_3rd: Why you ask?...."Why not? Why did they do it in Japan? Why, would it be weird to have an Auto B series?"

JASON77: "For sure..I'll keep you all posted.......especially with the JDM GSR ecu, at WOT it should do it's thing....never know till' you try eh? I'll let you know, I'm curious myself lol.."

dFreezy: "I'll keep ya posted..."

dcb16: Why auto?..."The EK is already an Automatic and I happened to come acrossed a JDM GSR AUTO w/ ECU...I'm thinking what the heck....it'll definitely be different...."

 

again, i think it's pretty cool that your trying to do something different, but i have an article about this kid who has done the same thing. this was in an issue of sport compact car i believe, he was handicapped so all he could drive was auto, but the fact is, the honda b series torque converters on the auto trannys just cant handle that much power. This kid put on a turbo or an SC, not really sure which one, but i remember him having problems. I guess if your planning NA, then that wont be a problem, but I'm just giving you a a heads up.

where did you find a gsr auto??

this sounds interesting.....info please!!

 

they are on ebay. I was looking into one myself at one point.

 

JDM TEG (B18C) comes with manual or automatic transmission.

 

dcb16: "Sounds interesting.....yea I definitely have no intensions to go Forced Induction....just a daily auto 'B' series driver lol.....thanks for the info..."

acuratuner00: "I got here locally from my buddy who brings in crates of motors from japan.."

 

keep me posted man....i really wanna hear about this...i got this LS auto and if i could swap a gsr motor n tranny into it, that would be a lil different...not to steal ur idea or anything...i always wondered about it, but never thought you could do it....good luck

I thought it would be different from the LS auto tranny in that it was designed (geared) from the factory for the GSR engine as opposed to the LS engine, same way as the LS manual tranny is different from the GSR tranny?

b18c3 (don't hate) ??? I wasn't putting down the guy I was actually interested in his Idea?

vtec4life thanks I will look forward to hearing how this idea comes out.......

 

im trying to do the same thing, almost..

 

vtec4life, you got a pm sir

 

im a kinda new at this... a pm is a privet message im guessing?.? WHERE DO I GO TO READ PM'S, I CANT FIND THEM...?!?

 

Its a simple swap. Just find the correct mounts for it. For the swap I did it was a jdm b16 auto swap into a auto EG. Only thing was extend some of the engine harness so it'll reach. Since JDM its RHD the wiring is opposite.

 

I'm not saying I know because I don't, but there has been people mention maybe doing this swap before and usually most people say that the "JDM GSR" auto tranny is the same tranny as any USDM LS auto. Again, I don't know just giving you a heads up. I do know your damn lucky to have found a auto GSR ECU.
