Default options for a grinding ys1 trans

I have a third gear grind when I am shifting in high rpm's, what are my options for rebuilding? I hear cable trans parts are hard to get. I don't want to convert to a hydro unless it is my only option. The car is a 90 crx with a B16.

Not at all. The YS1 internals are the same as newer hydro internals. Everything should be easily obtainable from Honda. Just look up parts for a 92-93 integra (GSR if you have the GSR gearset, as there are differences).

so the "guts" from a newer hydro trans will fit in the cable trans case?

Or, you could just rebuild your YS1. Get bearings, blocker rings, and syncros from a 92-93 US Integra GSR.

Yes.

GSR will fit just fine. LS too.

Probably the easiest. Just bear in mind that the YS1 stamp does not necessarily mean you have a GSR gearset. Most YS1s are LS gearsets. Get the parts for the right gearset, especially if you've got 3rd gear problems - your shift fork will need to match the synchro sleeve.

so swap in a hydro gearset and add a type-r final drive, lsd and I would be good as new. very nice... where is the best place to buy these parts? I have never had to do anything to a trans other than a clutch and lsd.

You'll need to do a little grinding to get enough clearance for the GSR/ITR diff carrier if you do swap the internals. Try this site

http://www.acuraparts247.com/s...e.jsp

for some decent prices on parts. Or try Len on H-T or Bert-O on EF1.
