my 92 cx b18 swap plan
i was told many moons ago on yahoo answers that jdm b18c gsr swap is the best/easiest route to go with upgrading my old 70 hp cx. all of the info i have found seems pretty straight forward with the exception of info on transmissions. my question is what transmission am i looking for for this swap to get the most bang for my buck?

Re: my 92 cx b18 swap plan
GSR trans sucks. But for a 92 CX, it might not be bad. Maybe the longer gearing will help with wheel spin.
A hydro LSD B16A trans will be a noticeable upgrade in terms of gearing. It's got the same gearing as the 4.4FD ITR trans, but has the less desirable viscous LSD. It's also more available and cheaper than a ITR trans. I'd drop a 4.78 FD gear in it....but....I like short gearing.
Or the 4.4FD ITR trans with a 4.78FD dropped in it. Or if you don't mind weird 4 and 5 gearing, an original 4.78FD JDM ITR trans is a good bet. Any ITR trans is $$$$$, though.
Check out jdmenginescorp.com. bought a few K/H/B series engines/transmissions from these guys and the stuff is always super clean and less expensive than most. Actually, I think they sell entire ITR swaps for like $3700 shipped. That's a good bang for your buck.

The B16 Trans is awesome but the high RPMs on the highway at 65-80 MPH can be a little annoying to some.
