hey guys just wanted to get ur opinion on how much my trannys worth i have a type r tranny with LSD but i believe it has bad synchros it only goes into 3rd and 4th gear and when its in neutral its crazy loose (not bushings replaced already) wanted to know how much its worth IF i were to sell it and how much it would be if i got it repaired any help is appreciated i got me a phreshhhh GSR tranny so imma use that for now but i would really like to know what i would be looking at if i sold it/repaired it thanx again !!!

Update *** heres the F/S Thread pics have been uploaded on both threads http://hondamarketplace.com/showthre...9#post45815279

 

Does it have vins, paperwork? that can be a big game changer..

 

My USDM Type-R was $1600 from a dealer, new. For a used/rebuilt transmission, you're looking at about half that.

 

naw no vin or paperwork when i traded it for my ej the gears were super short !!!! but it was attached to an LS so it wasnt attached to anything worthwhile but yea so like 800 bucks to get it repaired eh ? so do i take it to a tranny shop or do i take it back to the dealership ? im not too familiar when it comes to problems with trannys let alone how to fix em

 

they are worth $800-1200 in good working order.

in your case you might be money ahead parting it out. the lsd will fetch $400 and you'll get $100 out of the case and working gears.

 

^^you really think he can get 400 for that stock viscous lsd? i picked up my wavetrac from a HT member for 450 w/ original parperwork. mabye the final drive and stock lsd for 400 450? Now that i think of it, im in need of a final drive pretty bad. I was shooting for a used aftermarket 4.9 final but nobody seems to have one. maybe part that out? But yea tranny sounds like its in pretty bad shap, a good quailty rebuild is expensive!

 

if you have a viscious lsd you were ripped. those were the ctr/gsr lsd's, the itr used a helical gear

usually a used itr will sell the same as a new obx

the ctr/gsr lsd will fetch 250-300 tops

 

thank you for schooling me lol. Price sounds fair..helical ftw


But really let me know if you part it out, i can use a final (those are 4.7 right?)^^

 

well at a cross road i could either rebuild the tranny and go with my gsr swap or sell the tranny and boost my LS from what ive researched LS motors handle boost quite well i have a dc BTW and thnx for all ur input !

 

My competition stage 2 clutch just arrived !!!! sorry little off topic but been waiting on it forever

 

that itr lsd would be helpful in a boosted ls. 300whp really benefits from an lsd. adding that to your existing ls transmission is one thought.

 

The LS trans is a good reliable tranny just like any other trans but is NOT best for boost. Idk its really up to you. Crack it open and take a peak around, if you need say all new sleeves, bearings,synchros (might as well go carbon) plus labor it can get very very pricey.

 

well the motor is incredibly healthy so i think i might go with boost because i havent owned a boosted car myself @Racebum u seem to have helpfull insight how does a LSD GSR tranny differ from a ITR LSD tranny on a boosted LS ?

 

Teg92 man trannys are intimidating lol but yea i can open it and see whats up thnx for the suggestion

 

The type r tranny is for sale 500 oho hit me up if interested

 

if it's a real type r tranny you'll have it sold by the end of the day at that price

 

if it was in mint shape... I picked up a ITR tranny with lsd here for 300 with a cracked housing but all the gears and lsd good

 

goes to show a retard is born everyday. they close around 700-800 on ebay. why people take less i'm not really sure but it does happen

 

because since you can get aftermarket LSD's for cheap its not really worth it to get oem one... I would rather have an aftermarket lsd then a stock lsd anyday but thats just me specially when I can have it at almost the same cost and put new bearings in it and new seals

 

yea just looking for a quick sell i need the money bad for a suspension set up blown shocks suck super bouncy and i set it at that price into consideration of the buyer getting it rebuilt im a nice guy but yea i tried doing my research and apparently theres no solid way on identifying if its type r the only thing i have going is how short the gears were and that its an s80 but thats still pretty broad info HIT ME UP IF INTERESTED :D !!!!!

there kind of is actually. if j4d lsd has already worn off the case you can take a pic of the diff, basically aim the camera at the hole the axles plug into. i can spot the difference between an itr and gsr/ls easily. the hard ones to tell apart are gsr and ls

 

no way nice ill do it tommorow im out in another city visiting a friend and wont get back till way late any chances of u posting a pic of the type r lsd and gsr where the axels go ?

 

also willing to trade for full coilovers OR stock shocks that come with brand name aftermarket lowering springs,LCAS subframe brace and sway sway barr
