My tranny started having a loud clicking sound when the wheels are rolling. My mechianic told me it was a final drive, the larger of the two things in the tranny. I got a ACT 4 puk with race disk in it. So im wondering if that caused the problem? And should i put the act into my new tranny? The mechanic told me I was better of replacing the entire tranny instead of fixing it.
Im wanting to get a type R if i can find one for a decent price. How much should GSR, typeR trannys run? How much miles is considered decent for a swap-over? So far i've got quoted from hap $1250 for a '96 gsr tranny. Any help would be greatly appreaciated. I live in guetto Idaho so there's not much of anything around here.
Thanks!

 

A gsr tranny in cali goes for 5-800 and itr 12-1500(depending usdm or jdm). My itr tranny cost me 1200 with 90 day warranty. There is a guy on the board that can get jdm trannies. I would have bought a tranny from him but I found one locally. I can't remember his username. It was b18 something I think.

 

Ok in my search I found that a new usdm ITR tranny is on nationwide back order according to the local acura dealer. So Im having my buddy check the price on a new si tranny. If thats too much then I've got a choice between a '97 gsr tranny with 22k or a '99 gsr tranny with about 30k on it. Its like a a bill different between the both trannys, $1500 for the '97 and $1600 for the '99.
Should i put my ACT 4 puck race disk back into the new tranny? I was told the reason my final drive went out is because i have a race disk in there?!

 

definitely consider the b16a trans found in the del sol vtec and civic si, they are available from time to time on ebay, like now http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1867415115

 

I've got a couple things left on my messed up 97 GSR tranny that are still good like the final drive, etc. IM if interested.

 

WHY DO YOU HAVE A 4 PUCK. To that i say "YES" don't put it in for your next tranny. "JUST SAY NO TO PUCKS"

 

I learned my lesson with the 4puck, having to put up with it since i put it in. The shop that I had do my car didn't know nothing about ACT. They suggested that i go with a 4puck, which at the time sounded cool. Since I never did my research on that clutch. I'll probably go with a ITR disc, my buddy says its the same as a act street disc minus the price.
Anybody heard of the spoon trannys from inline four??? I was told for how much im gonna pay for a replacement i can get one at inline four. Who has got one of these? They worth the price/performance???
As the research continues and the gsr sits....one day she will drive again. A man w/o his import while driving around in a stock vechicle and seeing other imports. Let me tell ya.....sucks azz!

 

yeah search around you should be able to find something cheap and good quality. I think the spoon tranny is good hell it goes for like 12-1400 i think i havent been to inline4 for a while. but they are a good shop.

 

get a JDM Type R tranny with LSD for about $1300+...or u can get a S1 tranny and get a cable to hydro conversion with lsd for maybe $700....plus $200 for the conversion...from hasport...

 

I got all the info. from inlinefour's site, i'll go down to the shop who's doing my car and have them call. If all goes well i'll getting the spoon tranny from inline four. I'll post what I find out tommrow, so we'll see if the honda gods feel that i deserve the spoon tranny.

 

Well gues the spoon bsereis tranny is discontinued...there goes that idea. My buddy told me I should get a new final drive and a stock itr lsd. And just fix my current gsr tranny. I'm looking into ATS and stock ITR, is ATS worth it? Anyone out there have ATS??? Im so frustrated now, i just want my car running again.

 

Found a '95 ITR tranny, with a aftermarket LSD...anybody got this setup? Im probably gonna get it for 1200. I was told with a aftermarket lsd you gotta change the tranny fluid every 6 months?! Is this true? And you gotta use different tranny fuild. I've been w/o my car for way too long, so if things go right I'll end up getting this tranny. I'd like to hear some opinions if any out there on this. Thanks!
