Default B16A2 an LS tranny?

Is it a good idea to put a B16A2 with a cable LS tranny in my 90 hatch?

its not suggested but you should get a b16 cable to go with it. Its not the best tranny and will make it seem slow since when you shift it will drop down in rpms and go out of VTAK

if you get a ys1 trans you can always put whatever gears you want in it later i.e. gsr, s4c, y21 whatever.

A b16 with a LS tranny is really pretty darn sad.

if it's your only ride and you have to then go for it, but to go fast worst tranny by far.

You will fall out of vtec during shifts, it's pretty darn lame all around.

It will make acceleration very slow in comparison to a b16 tranny. I have driven that setup before and it sucked.
