Well im just curious and want to know how many people are useing type-r transmission's. If so what motor are you useing it with and what are your pros and cons on the trans. Thanks

 

im using the 98 jdm itr tranny with 4.7 final drive and lsd. lsd spins both wheels, better for drag and overall driving. im using it with a 2L GSR all motor

 

96 spec trans with a 96 spec ITR motor. Good accelaration, but motor screams on the highway (= not so good gas mileage).

 

Well I have a 01 trans almost brand new hooked to a b16, and so far i love it . Unfortunately i did not put it in and i have a problem with it. It's a long story but my problem is the reverse lights aren't working. All the obvious things have been checked. Anybody have any ideas.

May sound dump, but are the bulbs maybe burnt out lol

 

Believe me thats the first thing i checked.

 

Shorter gears = faster acceleration. That is the advantage. Specially gears 3-5.

 

i love my type r tranny. not the best for the long drives in 5th gear i am almost in vtec on my b16. but it worth it

you sure the reverse light sensor got extended?

 

Sucks on the highway if you cant tolerate 4k RPMs at 65-70 MPH.

Great acceleration and gearing. best Honda Tranny for drag racing IMO

I do concur. I'm using a 98 ITR Tranny 4.40.

 

im rocking the 4.7 FD tranny so the 4.40 is more tolerable

Yea, I will probably upgrade to the ATS 4.9 FD and LSD eventually. I run the RSR GTII Exhaust, so its ******* LOUD on the highway.

Plus I'm always doin 80, so its usually at like 5k.
