i have a stock gsr with stock gsr tranny...lately the tranny is showing signs of fatigue...its going into the early stages of grinding....so i was wondering what would a b16 tranny do for me?...shorter gears, faster acceleration.....do you think i should do this?....and how much does a b16 tranny usually cost?..

 

true it is the shortest of all USDM trannys...well it's the same as the ITR besides the LSD, and B17 tranny, but good luck finding one of those

 

i found one for 600 bucks.....thats a **** load of money for a tranny.... and type r trannys run for 1,000 bucks... i dont have money for either of those...so i was wonderin if i can get the b16 for cheaper anywhere else???

 

And you've been here long enough to know to search first

search B16 tranny

 

you know what?...i think im just gonna save up for a revhard kit. hahah solution solved. thanks for the help

 

Okay, so school this nooB (me) and tell me what a rev-hard kit is all about. Sounds likeit is some sort of tranny mod, but I am curious as to what it truly does.

there is a ITR tranny for sale somewhere on the site for 700.

 

rev-hard= turbo kit

the b16 tranny is a very good upgrade,shorter gears and alot better acceleration over the gsr trans.

 

aslong as your not on the highway

or on the other side of 65mph alot

with these gas prices that will kill ya

around 80 mph and you will almost be at 5 grand!

 

Actually, at 80mph I am at 4200. lol, still not used to it, but I love it.

Actually the fuel maps for most light load situations from 3500 to 4500 are almost the same. As long as you don't blip the gas pedal, you'll have a minimal negative effect on milage.

 

If you buy an SI tranny you may have to rebuild that once you install it and realize it's worn and crappy. I'd just put the money towards fixing your GSR tranny so you know what you're getting into.
