how can you tell it is a rsx type s tranny?
is there a number or something on the tranny?

 

do you plan on getting one ? if so, i think you should go for type r cuz type s tranny start grinding gears and break just like mine i bebuld mine with type r interals and i havent got a problem and everyone i know running a type r tranny they also said no problems

 

type-r tranny>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>us dm type-s tranny

i have blown my 2nd gear, cracked a bell housing, snapped 2 shafts, and broken 2 synchro's

so what do you think of durability of the usdm tranny's now?

 

learn how to drive bro

 

LOL good one try the 06 si tranny comes stock with lsd and shorter gears than a type s.

 

trust me buddy , i can drive fine. the **** isnt quality. its built to fail. its the rsx's only problem.

 

I can't belive that RSX's don't come with LSD. So what do they have. Both wheels spin, right? But it's not a true LSD?

 

no both wheels dont spin, thats the function of the limited slip differential, it puts power to the ground from both wheels.

 

So, do the Type-S's come with an LSD?

 

yea, but i dont how good it is. I havent had any truoble, wel major trouble with my tranny. I just have a major issuse with getting the gears to go in. 2nd gear is the hardest i have to slam it in, but for the most part i think the usdm tranny is pretty nice.

 

Type S's don't come with LSD....... and you own one pnjbiboye?? you don't have any problems with your LSD because you don't have one!

 

Spot on, spot on.

 

I'm having a problem with my 3rd gear engaging sometimes!!!!!!!

i heard it helps a ton
i haven't tried it yet but then again, i don't really have any problems getting into gear
also, a shortshifter, cable bushing, and shifter bushings can help

 

I'll see what Acura says then I'll post. I don't want to mess with anything myself since my warranty is goo till 62,000 miles and I only have 18,500.

 

dang
i have a 06 with 15,000

 

Yeah, got 2 becareful. You know that the type-s are known for the 2nd and 3rd problems. I'll let you know what they say. I'll bring it in like in two weeks then I'll post. MAKE SURE YOU USE YOUR WARRANTY WHILE YOU HAVE IT.
