i'm doing a h23vtec, turbo will come later but not right away.which tranny should i get?would it change after i go turbo?by the way, this is a 90%track car.....

 

if i were you.i would use the h22 tranny if your not going turbo for a while.then when you get ready to go turbo,i would use the h23 tranny or the f23a1 tranny.but if you want to kill 2 birds w/one stone just do the h23/f23.then all you will have to do is just put the turbo on...

 

oh thanks, i didnt know i could use the f series....could i get a little more in depth reasoning on why i should go with h22 for n/a and h23 or f series for turbo?i just like to know some background on my selection

 

bump...help!

 

h22a tranny

 

can you guys gimme reasons why i should pick a certain one?that'll help, plus like i said, i like to know more about it, not just bc so and so told me to

 

h22 shorter gear ratio and will let you build speed faster.


h23 has a longer gear ratio,letting you put that turbo power to good use.

f23 ditto as h23

i have had a f23a1 tranny on a h22 turbo'd car,and i will say 4th and 5th are very very nice w.turbo.but if this is only a tract car...i would do h22.because you are only going a 1/4 mile each pass.for the street i would definitely use the h23 or f23.


to give you and idea w/the f23 @ 140 "should not have been going that fast" the rpm's were set on 6300 so what does that tell you.


good luck on picking the right one

 

the h23 blows *** in fith gear you'll be cruzing at 4k rpm at 80 mph. which i hate.

there's in not much difference between h22 and h23 tranny. i cant tell at all except fifth gear.

i have a friend with f23 tranny on h22. and those gears are high you can really notice the big gears.

my advice is to go with what ever tranny you have now. then if you need you can always go with f23. but if you have h22/h23 tranny right now use it!!

 

well i dont have a tranny at all right now thats why i was asking, im still unclear bc "1700anddroping" said h22 is shorter geared allowing fast speed build up, then he said h23/f23 puts the turbo power to good use, so now i'm confused on which is better for my drag application.....

 

go with f23. it cheaper for you to start with. and if the gears are too tall for you, then go get an h22/h23 tranny. but youre gonna like it

 

ok thanks, so h22/h23 is basically the same?both shorter geared?i thought, and i think someone said above, that the h23 is like the f23 with longer gears.....

anyhow, can someone lead me in a direction so i can purchase one of these?

 

why is it one person says h22/h23 are the same, and one says h23/f23 are the same.....which is it fellas?which has the long gears and which has the shorter gears?

 

h22 got shorter gears

 

does it do any good to tell you.it seems as if you don't beleave what you hear.h22 for all motor and h23/f23 turbo.the h22 and the h23/f23 are no near the same.

 

well it doesnt do any good to tell me 2 different things....so what do i believe, you or the other guy?all i want to know is which have short gears and which have long gears.so obviously someone is posting false information.

 

how the hell is some one posting false information.first you say you want to stay n/a,then you say turbo.... the rest of us have told you numerous times,which tranny is good for that specific applacation.

 

go with the h22 tranny. if your going to the track, your going to not be able to use larger slicks with the f22/f23 trannys at all. you will be way out of powerband at the end of the track... thats a BAD thing. go with the h22, you will love it. especially if you use 24 inch slicks... which is what your going to use if you make good power. what car is this setup going in?? civic/lude/accord???


oh yea, the h22 and h23 are different but not by much. i think the final drives are the same but the h22 has slightly closer gears. its a noticable difference...
