Default What tranny is worth more? GSR or B16?

What tranny is worth more (street value), a 95 GSR tranny with 85k miles or a B16 tranny (Si or Del Sol) with 50k miles?

Thanks guys.

imo, the B16 tranny, it has a better gear ratio...same as ITR actually.
The GSR tranny would be about $100 less....

my opinion, the GSR tranny is STRONGER than the b16a ... every S4C tranny I come across either breaks or about to ... never seen as much broken GSR trannys.

But there is also a lot of problems with the GS-R's third gear synchro.

GSR trannys seem to be able to take more abuse.
