How much can I expect to have my tranny rebuilt?

Should i just get a used one for like 500 bucks?

My third gear the sycro shot...can they just replace that, or while its out do it all?

Thanx in advance, all help will be greatly appreaicated, btw its a civteg, 95 eg hatch body, 98 motor, 43 thousand on swap, 95 on car

 

If you can find a used one for 500 .. yeah why not.. but you need to get a warranty on it.. trust me.. this will be my 3rd tranny whne it goes in .. I've rebuiltt he first one.. no garantees on a rebuilt motor.. I spnd .. 400-600 to rebuild it .. and .. it was still fucked after a couple weeks.. take my advice.. if its fucked.. sell it to a rebuild place .. or sell it to someone that wants to rebuild it .. and buy a nice transmission.. take this opportunity to get a type R tranny w/ LSD or a B16 tranny put LSD in it.. something nice like that w/ shorter gears.. that is if your going all motor

 

A tranny rebuild....well that depends on where you take it. A good tranny shop with many years of experience actually won't charge too much. BUT they most likely won't use Honda parts.

What kind of tranny are you looking to get? I doubt you'll find a used GSR one for $500.

Yes, there are people who can replace only the synchros. Just an FYI, Honda sells it as an entire 3rd gear set.

EDIT: You are not that far from me....PM me and I can try to help you find a used tranny.

and that set tends to get pretty expensive... and once u rip apart the tranny there might be more stuff that might need replacing... i generally tell people to buy another tranny as most of the time it will end up being cheaper

 

Around here used GSR trannies are going for $2000 dollars. I am pretty sure that that is pretty damn expensive.

So what's a rebuild cost, for parts at least?

Wow.....I know they are expensive, but not THAT expensive. Sheeit, I could get an entire motor PLUS tranny for about that price. Hehe.

 

For a used tranny plan on about 1000.00. Whoever forks down 2000.00 for a GSR tranny is an idiot.

 

I was thinking around 700-800 for a GSR tranny. I've seen ITR trannies go for as low as 1,000. The price range for an ITR tranny is around 1,500 if its in good condition, etc. I don't know where this 2k comes from, but if I were from that area i'd definately be paying for an ITR tranny and the ship for that ridiculous cost of a GSR tranny.

 

i mean, im doing a new act HDSS this week, cause my throwout bearing is shot... and im going 2 put GM syncromesh in it for the time being, just the clutch alone is oging 2 be like 550 to put in...which leaves me with like 500 bucks, and i still need to fix my ignition switch. Theres like no way i could get a tranny and new clutch for like 1 g's is there?

 

shamoo, i IMed u, guess your away, give me a im sometime today, or e-mail me, dgabriele3@comcast.net thanx

 

It Depends on what kinda of transmission you want.. if you want a warranty on a GSR tranny .. its hard to find it at 800-900 .. and an OEM clutch its possible not to break 1K .. but if you wanna get a nice setup.. exedy organice and a jdm gsr tranny w/ LSD ..then its going to hit more like 1300-1400
