if you keeep it auto no matter what swap you get its gonna be slow as ***** sticking to your leg on a hot summer day. i suggest you do a lil research and do an auto &gt; manual swap and maybe a b16.

 

I don't know about endless like that other guy said b/c I thought the GSR, Type R, and 99/00 Si (the major B series w/ the exception of the B18a (integra)) only came in manuals - I guess u can slap that integra LS tranny on a GSR or something...but I dunno... So I think u can go with a B18a or B18b (integras putting out a decent ammount at about 140hp), I personally wouldn't go to a D15 but a D16Z6 or D16Y8 would be VERY nicely situated if you plan on keeping it auto...

On the flipside the auto transmissions of hondas are **** for two reasons, one, they're slow as hell...iono why, they just are, the second reason is that **** in honda trannies always BREAK, they can't stand up worth of ****..

In any event, I would put one of those motors in there, but I would seriously recommend a manual swap out....

 

Just learn how to drive a Manual transmission and make everybodies life easier and your's alot more fun . With practice it doesnt take long. Hell I learned on heavy equipment by the age of 8!!!

 

ic...

Manual tranny, shift linkage, shifter assembly, clutch pedal or manual pedal set, clutch linkage, and manual version of ur engine control unit (ECU)..think that's all

It's not as expensive or hard as you may think..

 

I'm acctually in the same situation as imfreestyler, i'm driving an automatic '95 del sol and i'm looking into trying to do an auto to man swap and get a big hp jump if i can... what would be the best way for me to go about doing this?

 

Not advertising or anything but again, RYWIRE.com has a auto-manual conversion how-to on their website. They even sell the ecu you would need.

 

there's also a pretty damn good auto to manual conversion how to somewhere on honda-tech, do a search for it

Hit me up if you need some help.

 

yeah i need as much help as i can get... and any pointers will do me a world of good...

 

If you wanna do a manual conversion then search and theres tons of how to's as to which swaps are available in automatic. Every manual swap listed at the top of this forum is available in auto matic except the type r which could be done using a different auto b series tranny. But hopefully you just get a full manual swap.
