Default new f2d write up

i know there are not many write-ups on this swap and i just completed mine so i was woundering if anyone is interested in it. i could do a write-up on it and give every detail you will run into that the other write-ups did not write abount. so if you guys have any questions and want to see a write up with pictures let me know.

this is my first custom swap and i am not a mechanic so please excuse my mechanical vocab lol

Yes, bisi f/h2d kit. Cheaper and lighter then buying/using f/h series tranny, axles and shift linkage. You also get a 8-10lbs evolution flywheel. And it is also cheaper in the long run, d-series axles can be found for $20-$30 each where as f/h cost around $100 each because they must be custom to fit civic knuckles

Urggghhhh small minded!

Really, you DON'T see any advantage to using a D series tranny/axles/shift rods... Unless you already have a B-Series under the hood.

Other than the available gear ratios and equal lenght axles, the B-Series hasn't got a whole lot going for it.

On the other hand EX/Si tranny are a dime a dozen, so are the axles. The some D-Series have beefier shift forks and the JDM LSD D-Series tranny is only $400 at any importers.

I could build an awesome JDM LSD D-series tranny with some custom gears and still not even come close to the price of an OEM LSD B-Series (and you still need axles, mounts and shift rods).

F20B - $500 (in any Montreal JDM importers)
H2D - $700 (Bisi even has a special for $670)

for $1200, you have reliable swap that will keep up with a K20 and kill 99% of all stock B-series in the quarter.

H/F2D is the thinking man's kit.
