ok, i have a jdm b16a Y1 transmission. thrid scratches at high rpms, second does not. while taking slow right had corners my second gear pops out and the shifter does not return to netural. on slow left corners my third pops and it pops out the same way second does. im stumped on this issue. im needing to know what could be wrong and what normally needs to be replaced. im looking to yank the tranny apart this week to inspect it

 

Check mounts and bushings. Be ready to replace the 1/2 and 3/4 sleeve sets.

 

figured, whats they price of those parts? i can use the 90-91 us integra tranny parts right?

 

Not sure. I've not tried to cross fit them, only replaced with new OEM sets.

 

ok, well i looked at del ray acura and all i found was the set for 1-2 for 230 and a set for 3 for 120. im hoping i can get them cheaper so i can crack it apart and go to town

 

dave at smsp sells tranny rebuild kits, bearings seals and syncros, those wont have the sleeves that i need would it?

 

Nope.

 

you could always buy my j1 and open it up and use the parts to fix yours lol.. like i said mine only popped out of first and i think it was from a broken engine mount/rear k-member..

 

yea im leaning towards that. im just stumped on this tranny i payed 650 for it from hmo and had issues with it. i just feel i wasted money.

my thing is why it pops out only on corners...haha, 2nd on rights and 3rd on lefts. getting on the interstate sucks.

 

Mine pops out of fourth and sometime never even wants to go in 4th lol. If I hold the shifter while on a turn that it would pop out on, it starts to grind

 

Did you contact HMO about it?

 

sounds like problem with the new civic si 3rd gear...replace the gears that are popping out and the synchros

 

when ur turning it puts more stress on the wheels which connects to axle which connects to trans thats prolly why it only pops out on corners

 

It doesn't put anymore stress on them. The transmission doesn't know which way the wheels are turned nor does it care.

Replacing just the gear itself and the synchro's won't solve anything. If the dog teeth on the gear are worn, so is the sleeve, which means the hub is more than likely scratched up.

 

yea i did but trannys carry no warranty. ive had this tranny for a few years now. i just want to fix it now. its an annoyance.

 

Ah. Wasn't sure about that as I've never actually used a complete trans from them, just purchased a few to get parts out of/have for spare parts.

 

yea i found this tranny from him and these are hard to find so i scooped it up. im picking up another j1 b16 tranny soon to do the rebuild. i hope the y1 is ok and not expensive as crap to rebuild

really? so why don't u tell me what would happen if i bolted the trans to the floor and used a crane to lift up the left axle basically creating a right turn situation?......eventually the axle is going to break the trans at the diff point...now if stress didn't break it then what did?

 

Lift an axle and it will spin as it has no load.

The only part of the trans that has any clue the wheels are turned is the diff, and they don't break from the wheels turning. I've beat the **** out of my car on track, with a stock open diff and the MFactory LSD. Neither broke from the wheels turning. The stock diff broke once from hitting a gator and shocking the diff.

 

either way.....connected to diff which is spun by the gears inside still putting stress on them...if there were problems with the synchros and gears u would have had problems

 

The axles connect with the diff internals, not the diff housing, which plays host to the ring gear, which is spun by the countershaft that is spun by an individual gear. Where in that system do you see the axle being able to stress the trans? Axles are fixed length and have CV joints to allow for movement (steering, suspension travel, engine foward/aft movement).

If there were problems with the synchros and gears how would that affect anything with your theory of axles causing stress. Please enlighten me.

 

u pretty much said it urself...The axles connect with the diff internals, not the diff housing, which plays host to the ring gear, which is spun by the countershaft that is spun by an individual gear...just read that part...i do not have to explain it see as how u know so much about it...u got ur theory and i got mine...mine was explained to me by train pros and people who do this stuff daily....i do not need to explain myself further

 

Figures.

 

What is a train pro and what business does he have messing with a Honda transmission????

Maybe he should stick to the traction drives.

 

u have no clue to what urself is talking bout bone
