as some of you might know i just turboed my eg hatch, semi built 2nd generation b16, my problem is i just blew apart my hydro gsr tranny and i have a spare 1st generation y1 tranny with factory lsd i want to us in its place....i have gotten mixed answer in my other posts and search on here and the net. can i use my 94-01 integra half shaft and axels still on the older tranny or do i need to switch to the 90-93 halfshaft and use a different drivers side axel or do i use the 94-01 halfshaft with the 90-93 seal? anyone done this first hand please help as the tranny is in the car im just waiting on the axel install to get the car back on the road...

 

Don't do it. Can you? Probably. Should you? NO.

Hydro in cable car, sure. Cable in hydro car? BAD.

 

but why? have you done it? i have the tranny in the car allready

 

Why dont you just transfer the guts of the trannies and keep from converting from hydro to cable?

 

i could but the tranny is allready in the car...just waiting on the axels to get it running again

 

no body runs one...i thought it was more common that this...

 

i dont see why not.... i did it in my old 93 hatch worked out fine

the intermediate shaft and axles are the same.....

ive seen other people run a cable tranny in a hydro car..... it can be done cause ive done it...hasport has a conversion for it ....


good luck with your build

 

yea i got the conversion from enjo i was just unsure about the halfshaft and axels thanks man

I think you're confused.

K-Series is cable SHIFTED, not cable clutch. We're not talking about shifters here, we're talking about clutches and slave cylinders.

 

i was under the impression that the k series was clutch too..?

i meant the whole k swap, i dont think you can do the tranny but i know that they do make an adapter to run b series tranny on h22 motors..

 

damn im still surpized no one here runs this set up....looking for the lone ranger still running this setup

 

I had this in my old EG coupe.Worked fine, theres nothing "BAD" with it aslong as u do it right.

Theres no difference in the trannies besides the clutch type, well kind of.

To be honest though, i forget wich axles i used.As long as u have both sets and u get one set to fit correctly ur good, its not too hard.

If u put a trans in ur car then u should be able to figue this out fairly easily.

 

yea im just trying to save some time and get the right part the first time...i have done over 10 swaps and rebuild several engines...**** i have been messing with hondas for over 10 years...

K series uses cable shifter (instead of rods) and a hydraulic clutch. I can't think of a single new car that uses a cable clutch--hydraulic is better in every single way but simplicity. Better pedal feel and more reliable. EF owners like myself know that with a heavy clutch the pedal bracket WILL end up breaking eventually--you have to weld extra material in to make it last with a heavy clutch...

 

yea the cable to hydro conversion im using relocates the slave onto the cable tranny so its still actuated by the stock hydro system... feels smooth sitting still havent drove the car yet i plain on doing to final axel install this weekend

 

 

you have to use the axles from a 92-95 teg. because the halfshaft is a little different to adjust to the lower control arm that us civics have. and the 90-91 tegs dont...

im putin in the b18a1 in my ex. and i have to do that.
