Well today i went to the junkyard to find a real riced out 2nd gen teg. Well anyways i took the transmission out because i am in need of a cable on for my 4dr. swap im getting ready to do. Anyways, it is a 1990 or 1991 integra i got the transmission from. Now on my 2nd gen it has a YS1 tranny and it is a 1990. I am 1000% positive that it says s1 on the tranny sticker.

So i figured i buy it. The car was rear ended so i figured heck: It cost $49.99 for the tranny, $20.00 for the core and like 8 or 9 bucks in tax/envir. fees.... So basically for 60 bucks all said and done, IMO it was well worth it.

What is a s1 from. I didnt think that was from a usdm integra. I didnt even realize it was a s1 until i got home and started cleaning all the crap off it. Ive done a little searching-(hard since you cant type in 2 letters) and i have came up with that it came of a JDM integra XSi or a JDM civic SiR. And apparently it is geared super short....

Can anyone tell me if i hit something good here? Or is it just another stock usdm tranny? Anyone can give me the gearing id really appreciate it.
Thanks

 

isnt the s1 a b16 tranny?

 

the integra from japan came with that trans real shot gear but so did the integra in america but the gears are not long the s1 comes from the 90-91 integra so if u get a clutch u will have to get it for a 90-91 integra not 92-93 the clutch is different most likely u got a usdm trans with long gears

 

messed up on what i said the japan s1 short gears the usdm s1 long gears

You got the USDM s1, it's from an LS Teg, long gears.

 

how can i tell the difference between a a jdm s1 and a usdm s1? oh btw thanks for the tranny spec page. Very informative!

 

awww ****...... oh well still $60 bucks with a 30day warranty, still a good deal. plus i want one with better higway gearing since i drive on the highway more.

 

Slap it on and tell us how it feels...

 

well you can open the case and count the teeth on 5th gear and i will do the same on my jdm s1 b16 short-geared tranny's 5th gear and if they are the same then you have a jdm and if you have less then you have a usdm.
but i'd bet yours is the usdm 90-93 ls/gs/rs integra, like El Vap said.

 

yep i will as soon as i get a clutch for 90-91 integra...

 

yeah im just going to assume its a usdm s1, because i really dont want to have to take it apart and start counting.....
lol

hmm is there any way to tell from the outside if its jdm or usdm?

yeah, if it is m4d tit3 then it is JDM, y0!

sorry, i couldn't resist.

 

hmmm call me slow but i didnt get that....

 

well maybe my sense of humor is off-the-wall, but i was attempting to make a joke about the current JDM craze and some people's manner of speaking/typing.

i was saying that if the transmission is "mad tight" then it must be of Japanese Domestic Market origins, because if you know anything these days, it is that anything and everything that is of Japanese Domestic Market origin is superlative.

i am not attempting to make fun of anyone in particular, especially since i realize that alot of JDM stuff is superior to usdm, but the infamous "ricers" that exist do take it too far sometimes, so maybe i am poking fun at honda-tech's favorite whipping boys.

anyway, maybe i just shouldn't try to be funny on the internet, or even in RL, for that matter.

phukk it, i'm just gonna be me and do what i like.

 

ok i kindof get it know?? um yeah, there was some other cool things on the car. Like the big *** type "R" replica wing that was crushed.... haha....hmm what else, oh i got a SiR emblem off the back, it was scratched up but i believe its a real one. hmm there was also other crap that was taken off before it was junked, like headlights, cluster, seats, front bumper. Id dunno....Im starting to get the joke now!\


haha!

 

You got a B series cable transmission for 60 dollars US???

Damn.

 

um yeah actually it was like $58.XXX something in change. But yeah. It sucks getting it from u-wrench it. They always charge a core fee...
ugh!

 

Don't complain! Those things are gold up here. I'd pull out 3 or 4 of them if I lived near you, just as backups.
