Default b16a SiR motor in my 89 civic hatch, need help finding bolt-on hydraulic tranny options...

Hi, I have an 89 Civic hatch with a JDM B16a engine and tranny out of a civic SiR, and the clutch is failing. I have owned mostly newer vehicles with hydraulic tranny's, and I do not care for this cable driven tranny much at all, its just clunkier and harder to shift with altogether compared to a hydraulic tranny. I am hoping somone can tell me which car's with hydraulic trannies will bolt up to my b16a, and will be able to handle turbo power, as my engine is turbo'd. I figure since the clutch is going, I might as well get the tranny I want at the same time. Thanks for the help!

this is one of another debates of peoples opinions but since u ask. you will end up needing a cable to hydro conversion kit and many people have opinions of gear ratios and that is up to u, if u like the LS long gears or the type R short gears. the 94+ LS integra will fit, or the gsr 94+ will fit or the 99 si b16 transmission will fit, then there are the type Rs

Price $499.00

EFB2

Here is yet another kit everyone has been looking for. The all new Billet EFB2 mount kit. The mounts are milled from lightweight ultra strong T-6061 aluminium billet and have a lifetime warranty. Besides being the best looking and strongest mounts on the market, we have made some changes in engine placement.

These mounts make B-series engine swaps into the 88-91 Civic or CRX a simple, bolt-in process. The kit is designed to work with the B-series engine and the hydraulic transmission.

Every kit is engineered to race specifications. Engine movement is minimized by controlling the durometer of the polyurethane bushings, and as such, only 3 mounts not 4, are required for the engine swap.Three durometers of bushing stiffness are available at no additional cost. When ordering, specify whether you want "Street", "Race", or "Extreme Race" stiffness. The urethane bushings also have a lifetime warranty.

* CAD/CAM Designed.
* Proper engine placement and axle angle.
* 6061 T-6 billet aluminum
* 62A, 70a, and 80A urethane.
* Lifetime Warranty.
