I am eventually going to do a full swap gsr motor and tranny in to a 97 Civic HX but my question is that my stock transmission took a **** on me so i was wondering if it is possible to just drop in the GSR transmission right now because i don't have the motor yet into my stock D-sereis motor. Are there any adjustments that i would have to do besides the transmission mounting?
TIA

 

no.

 

Adjustments = swap in the B18C1

 

nope...will not fit...d series for d series b series for b series...remember that

 

alright thanks. What transmission would work better for my vtec-e? EX or DX tranny or should i stick to the POS HX tranny?

 

The EX will have shorter gearing and the DX will have longer. Either way, you are still stuck with a Y6.

 

get a othe HX tranny

save on gas till you get your swap

 

What exactly happened to your tranny. The only one I have ever seen that wasn't worth rebuilding involved a customer that somehow mis-shifted into reverse at 80.

 

B and D series are not intercheable

get a chep HX tranny and have every penies for the GSR swap

y rebuild ,u can get a hx trans from a junkyard for like 150.00, if i could get my trans rebuilt for less than that, i'd take it. plus he's doing a swap, just get a cheap d seriers trans to putt around in.

 

yea i think i will save to get the HX tranny.

I will be driving and then all of a sudden it will act like its in neutral and rev up real high with out going no where but when actually it is still in gear.

 

With an EX tranny on a HX motor you'll still be in the upper 30's, maybe even tip 40 mpg if you do a ton a freeway driving. The EX tranny is one of the best improvements you can make to the HX. If you already have the b18 ready though, just put it in. If not, then maybe the EX tranny will be enough to hold you over. The y5 is a way underrated motor IMO.

 

Only interchangable trannies are between the same series engines. B16 can use a B18 tranny and vice versa.

Since you have a D series engine, the B series tranny will not bolt up to your engine.

Just do the engine swap. Takes like 4 hours if you know what you're doing.

Well see thats the thing i don't know what im doing im just out of high school and it will cost a **** load in labor to have a place do it for me. So i don't know what i am going to do. Plus the car is AT and will cost a grip load to get it converted.

 

Missed the A/T part, that isn't worth building.....

 

do you have any more for sale or someone you know, im looking for a 97-99 SI stock low miles if best.

 

98 Honda Civic DX manual for $5200
