wats the best all motor trans, i kinda wanna go wit a b16, cause of the shorter gearing, i get that, but wats the bad on it, y does everyone tell me to go gsr trans.....and, jus to be sure, y not the ls, if closer gear ratio is better???????????

 

custom (tailored to your engine's tq curve and application)>ITR>B16>GSR>LS.

search for more info.

 

itr is the best, but very costly... b16 is great for the track orsaturday night street races, but not so well on top end (you will top out your tranny at 130-140... the gsr is a good over all tranny. it has great top end, and decent track gear ratio, and its a really STRONG tranny. the LS is mainly for gas mileage... fifth gear bogs when racing, and ithe gears are just long PERIOD. ive had an LS, GSR, and now a B16. the gsr was my favorite for a daily driver, but im loving the heck out of the b16 in my project car

 

I think one of my last brain cells gave out.

What are you doing with the car?
How much can you spend?
How much power are you making?

You know what I give up.

 

I got USDM ITR with GSR 5th gear, best of both world

 

^hahha, lol

well personally id say the itr for the final drive

 

US ITR trans, m factory longer 1st gear with a 4.7/4.9

 

i have a usdm itr tranny and i love the lsd over the stock 00 Si tranny. i really wanted the jdm model with the 4.785fd but oh well...

 

Just install a FD in your US tranny.

the JDM tranny isnt what you think, yeah its nice from 1st to 3rd.. 4th gear is too big of a gap.

 

b16 tranny best bang for the buck...unless your ballin get an ITR tranny with LSD...IMO

you'll top out that ITR tranny at around the same speed too dude

 

I love how some people post on people post just to be a dick . Not everyone has the same knowledge as others so if you aint got nothing positive to post go stick your dick in somone elses post.

Bump as stated you got to see what your motor makes for power but for now just get a B16 tranny slap it in dyno the car then you can work on building a tranny that is geared near your power band.

someone must have pissed in your wheaties this morning...i don't think my girlfriend is even that sensitive

 

US ITR gearing is the same as B16 gearing. Only difference is ITR has LSD.

High (low numerically) final drive with close gears and a long first is the best IMO.

I don't get why people are worried about top speed and what not. I've been through a lot of tranny setups and my current is the best yet. Y8 trans with MFactory close gear set. 1.259 4th.

 

I enjoy the hell out of my B16b tranny with MF gear set

ITR and SIR tranny have the about the same top end speed...and with a motor reving between 9000 and 9500rpm its a lot faster that 130mph

bone stock i had my ITR topped out at 145...i havent tried a top speed run with the new set-up, if i had to guesstimate id say 155-160ish

 

Why are you guys concerned about top speed? Seriously if thats you concern you shouldn't of bought a honda. You guys take your tin cans up to 130-140mph on the regular?

Someone please tell me why the gsr tranny is STRONG.

 

like its been said, b16 or type r if your ballin, im running a b16 and like it, except for cruising around town or on the highway it gets loud
