wassup, is any one running a b20 (no vtec) w/ a ITR tranny
just curious how u like it cause i think i will be doing this set up
as soon as i sell my car and get my hatch!
gonna do b20 non vtec for now till i get more money.

 

I have a 99 B20Z with a Euro ITR tranny (4.785 FD). I'll be swapping it in soon, and I'll let everyone know how good/bad the gearing will be.

From what everyone is saying it should pull pretty hard! The LSD is definitely nice as well...

 

a friend of mine was running a simliar setup his DA Integra. JDM YS1 LSD equipped tranny which has 1 & 5th that shorter then ITR . so the comparison is very simliar. before this he was running a Y1 LSD tranny which was short geared but with 4.26 FD which wasn't all that. when he went to YS1 the car felt totally different from the start, its always in the powerband, no need to downshift to merge into lanes or simply to pull infront of someone.

up to 100km/h or so he was one car quicker then my 160whp B16A in a EG hatch (which used to run low/mid 14's with street tires).

I definatly recomend the setup and if I wasn't going d-series I would do a B20B with R tranny for the streets, its amazing with all the torque. recommended is a lightweight flywheel with the setup, which makes also the b20 rev like crazy

gas mielage was at about 25-35mpg depending on the conditions.

 

yeah thanks, i think that it would be a nice setup.
the setup i think i wanna run is a : b20 jdm 4-1, intake , cat , exhaust
and then the r tranny with clutch and flywheel!
thanks for the input guys!

 

Good luck!

 

It will definitely have some pull but hopefully you don't do a lot of interstate driving. With those gear ratios it will put the motor at a constant high rpm that it wasn't desinged to see for a really long length of time. 5th gear @ 70 mph will be about 4200-4400 rpm's

 

I'm glad I don't travel on freeways a lot...
