i was wondering... one of my frineds have a type R 5 lug sighting on the type R gunmetal rims. and i have a 98 USDm LSD tranny that came off a 98 type R with only 33k do you think the dill is worth it if we do an even trade. if so is it worth it for both of us or just one of us thanks

 

ITR tranny is way more worthwhile. 5-lug is hypeness with a touch of JDM.

lol werd. Keep your tranny.

 

keep the trans.

 

how much do you think the tranny is worth(money wise) compared to the 5 lug

 

good condition ITR trans 1000-1300.

 

suspension will go for 1500+- with the wheels
transmission will go for 1-1200.

id say keep the tranny. its easier to find the 5 lug, but when you are looking for a tranny, you dont know what to expect with a used one.

 

5-lug = maybe impress the occasional onlooker

ITR tranny = awesome performance to make yourself happy every time you drive

Easy choice for most...

 

keep the tranny

 

keep the trans

 

Does the 5-lug come with brakes? If so, that's a fantastic upgrade if you track the car or autox it. If not, and you just putter around, the tranny will be more fun.

 

I agree with everyone else when they say keep the tranny. Good transmissions are hard to get, especially an ITR trans. You can easily duplicate the ITR brake setup in 4 lug configuration for 1/4 of the cost of the actual 5lug setup. If you do some searching around on here there have been some very good threads on replicating the 5lug brake setup, but in 4lug configuration

 

Steve sucks Are you entertained now, bitch?

 

depends on what you really want more.....looks or performance...

 

I guess it depends on what kind of tranny you are replacing your old one with?

keep the ITR tranny. 5 lug conversion is pointless in most applications. the wheels and brakes are nice and cool, but only the brakes are going to increase performance, largly at track events and very minimally at autox. Even then there are nice brake upgrades available for cheaper if you look around................John

 

keep the tranny man... fuction over form

5 lug will weigh you down more and maybe get you a glance or 2. but it aint gettin u any play with the ladies unless u got the mad Spinnaz YO

and the Tranny will make u happy everytime you drive your car

You can get 4-lug type r conversion from hmotors for $200 (w/o wheels). Keep the tranny!
