Well Im going to be crossing over to the dark side. I already have a JDM itr tranny with the 4.7 and LSD.

I was wondering how your tranny's like the boost and is there any downside to them with Boost.

Thanks guys

 

like to know also...cause this is what i have...boost is going in in two weeks...bump

 

i dont like it no traction on first or sencond gear. i think a si tranny with lsd is better or a gsr with LSD. just my 2 cent. may be if it's a full race car with 26x9x13's then u might be able to pull some nice time with those gears

 

ya i dont get traction very well 1st thru 3rd. and im only NA b16 with boltons..lol

 

I have no traction in first and second, I barely keep the traction with part throttle. Slicks would definately be a different story. Overall Im happy, Im sure you will be also. It will make you a better driver being that you have to concentrate on keeping traction...no more just slammin gears and keeping it straight.

 

im definately gonna get a set of traction bars to help keep it stable. along with some jimfab lower mounts and ES inserts`

 

you will hate that tranny. honestly you will. cruising on the highway doing 80mph and revving at like 5k sucks ***. I would have people ask me if I was going to shift, but I was already in 5th gear. If your car is a track car, mos def. Daily driver, install at your own risk

 

ohh i know that.. i already have the ITR tranny on my b16 i dont mind the highway high RPM

 

hello,

 

4.7fd + boost = 4gear tranny, thats how useless 1st becomes, you will never use it.

 

heres the run down.

B16 tranny = strip, light to light
Gsr tranny= strip/highway
Ls tranny = highway ( long *** gears )

the ITR/CTR trannys as similar to the B16 1-4th gear major difference is the final drive and the face they come with a Lsd

choose your tranny based on how you plan to use the car

 

I have an ITR/Si ratio tranny and I put shitloads of highway miles on it. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a B16/ITR ratio tranny for the highway. As for the 4.7 FD, you may went to find a USDM ITR tranny to swap someone or just switch out your FD and counter shaft.

 

Put the 4.7 in the LS and it will be a semi decent tranny..

I've wanted to do it forever, but just havent.

 

i have an itr tranny...i love it...dont do too much freeway driving though...acceleration was much faster then my gsr...i think its dumb to do high speed runs on public roads anyways

 

i put that trans in my car for ONE pass at the track and instantly pulled it out. it sucks *** with boost.

 

It will be fine if u have good boost control.

 

type r trannies were always my favorite to run.
