I just put in a ITR cable tranny(LSD) in my DA integra today, I drove around to test it and the tranny makes an almost unnoticible whine, and the whole car vibrates slightly at 2k rpm, but fades away once the rpm increase. Im a Mechanic and it seems to me that the tranny is the problem. It never did this before the install. I need your guys help, thanks

other parts installed:
XTD 6-puck unsprung clutch kit
New OEM flywheel
New tie-rod end (right)
New CV-axle (right)

 

aww man I'm gonna have to take it back out

 

firts of all ITR transmissions were hydro

 

+1 and also check your motor mounts.

 

Are you sure its not the y1 lsd? Doesnt tend to shake much more with an lsd tranny? My y1 does that, it doesnt grind or pop out, and i;ve had it for a couple years now using centerforce dual friction clutch kit.

 

Yea its a Y1 LSD, Just found out. So the problem is the tranny is what your saying?

 

as long as all your other work was done properly (ex: mounts all tight, didn't damage c/v joint etc..) then yes it does sound to be caused by the trans. have you noticed any binding? possibly the lsd is taking a dump

 

Yes everything else was done correctly. When I pull it off gear the vibration goes away. Now my question is what will i need to get that fixed? and how much just in parts?

what do u mean by binding? second gear sychro is bad

 

did you shim the lsd right and do you have the proper clearence some lsd you need to add fuild to them

 

what year integra is your clutch for? the y1 needs the 90-91 integra clutch. only asking because you thought it was a type r tranny.

 

Really hard to say w/o hearing/feeling it in person. But I would lean towards a bad input shaft bearing. When they fail they can cause a vibration and/or clicking (similar to that of a bad axle).

It's pretty easy to pull the trans apart and check that bearing.

 

Im gonna take it back down, the thing was i bought from my co-worker and just put it on which was a bad move. I should took it to my friend to look at it. The axles are fine , no play, and free spins normal (on car lift). My friend works at this place here in Hollywood,Fl called JAPTECH, they only work on hondas, im gonna have him take a look at it.

The clutch kit is for a 94 integra ls (which is the block i have/w p72 head)

 

Aren't you suppose to use a cable tranny clutch kit?

 

This thread makes no sense. If that trans is a y1 then you can't use a 94 Integra clutch.

 

My mistake its a YS1, here are pics. Im using a b18b block, flywheel and clutch kit.

 

the only thing different between 90-93 clutch kit and 94 is the throw-out bearing

 

WRONG.

90-91 and 92-93 clutches are different. a1, s1, y1, j1 input shaft size is smaller than 92+ b series transmission.

Difference between 90-91 clutch kit and 94 kit is the disk AND the bearing.
Only difference between 92-93 clutch kit and 94 kit is the bearing.

 

so my tranny the YS1 is a GSR tranny? so that would make it a 92-93 tranny

 

i say find out for sure what you have before you do ANYTHING! big/small spline trans and clutch. maybe u got a small spline trans and a big spline clutch. if so, i wouldn't say anything more..

 

my cheap set of CV joints vibrated.

Got OEM ones and went away.

 

Do you understand how to use the search function? YS1 does not = GSR. All 92-93 integras came w/ a YS1. RS, LS, GS, GS-R....


FAIL. Learn something before you post. This has NOTHING to do with splines. It has to do with DIAMETER of the SHAFT. 92+ shaft size is LARGER than 89-91 b series. It's already been determined that he is using the right sized clutch disk.


I wouldn't shy away from using aftermarket axles, they are cheap. And usually they come w/ a very good warranty. Yes, they might be bad right out of the box, but you can just bring them back and get replacements for free. That's going to be a lot harder w/ OEM axles if they happen to be bad out of the box. But yes, OEM ones are generally going to have a better track record. I've been using Raxles for almost 10yrs now, zero complaints, great customer service. I got one set as a replacement (they have a lifetime replacement guaranty) and one was bad - they replaced it for free no questions asked.

Axles can cause vibration, maybe even noise. But judging by his description it doesn't really sound like his problem.

 

so by the diameter of the shaft... how many different diameters are there?


and i dont see dude confirming the correct clutch disk. unless u guys r pming on the side.

 

SEARCH. 89-91 b series transmissions have the smaller input shaft. 92+ have the larger input shaft. Common misconception is that the splines are a different size or a different number. Both versions have the same number of splines, but the diameter of the shafts are different. IIRC the difference is 1mm - to confirm that you can look up exedy's website, I believe they have the shaft diameter posted in the specs of their clutches.


If you read the posts it's obvious.

1) He finally figured out it's a YS1 trans (larger shaft dia)
2) He said he's using a 94+ integra clutch kit.
3) All 92+ b series clutch disks are the same in regard to fitment.

 

SO WHAT UR SAYING IS THERES BASICALLY 2 DIFFERENT SHAFTS RIGHT? ONES BIG, AND THE OTHER ONE IS SMALL.

AND WHAT POSTS STATE OBVIOUS THINGS? YOURS? OR HIS?

 

Yes, exactly what I said 89-91 is one size and 92+ is the other size. No b series transmissions were made pre '89, so that pretty much sums them all up.

It's the combination of posts. He gave some info about his setup, then I gave info regarding fitment...etc. Read everything and it's a conversation back and forth in which we came to certain conclusions (whether stated explictly or simply confirmed by what both of us were talking about).
