Please dont post unless you are 100% on your info
i have seen so many ppls bs'ing answers
Thx

 

same engine

 

jesus... SEARCH...dude to the power being transfered through the torque converter, there is power lost to the ground, not through the engine.... right?

oh, in that case. it doesnt matter, its the same engine. just different numbers to the wheels depending on the tranny

 

well we are asking this because we might be getting a B18B and alot dont come with trannys. i think they might be autos and have less power but it seams that they dont

 

ok
so if we get one
what would be the best tranny
other than a R tranny
i dont know much about B series stuff i am H series guy

just about anything except the ls tranny haha... b16, gsr, anything... all are spendy tho

 

what are his plans for the car?

 

well he is just 16
so we want to do a LS swap in his 94 hatch
then down the road do a turbo setup

 

ls then turbo would be nice for a hatch maybe do the ls/vtech after that or just find a good gsr motor and stick it right in there and do a turbo setup on it

 

at my friends performance shop he dyno'd a these two cars and they put the same #'s to the wheels. there is no loss with the auto. dont listen to these people. the honda auto tranny is a very good tranny. they dont go out until almost 200k (so ive seen so far) everyone here just likes to go with the same thing as the guy next to him as long as he doesnt get flamed. people here are afraid to be different thats why no one here is original. they all have coupes wingless and no clear tail or corners. tegs are beautiful cars but if i seen a line of oem lookin tegs i would get bored quick. sorry to go off topic a little

 

no they were saying that they had the same numbers

this is true.... id guess, and the reason the auto is slower is because its a 4 spd? so way bigger ratios?

 

yea that is a good reason
i dont thing that the B18 w/auto would be the same as B18 w/ 5 spd

 

autos arent slower they just have higher gear ratios. meaning you can go 40 in 1st 75 in 2nd 115 in 3rd and 120+ in fourth. i went for a ride ina auto ls and he shifted through the gears and thses speeds are where he was redlining at and shifting at.

 

dude a auto is way slower than a 5 spd
if you cant notice this somthing is wrong some where
not only are the gears longer making it alot slower acc. wise
you cant use the engine to it peak power

dude... im sorry, but ima have to disagree...


if NOTHING else, the higher gear ratios alone make an ls auto slow as ****...

the bigger the gear that is turning, the more TORQUE (force*radius) needed to turn that gear...so when the gears are bigger...as the case with higher geared trannies...a greater amount of force is required to turn the gear...

on a further note... ... the moment of inertia of a larger gears (weigh more) makes it necessary for more force to be put into turning the gear...making the radial acceleration slower than that of a smaller lighter gear

if u rolled the first gear of an ls 5 spd and the first gear of an ls auto down an inclined plane... the 5 spd gear will get there first because less energy is lost to making that big ****** spin....

no one better **** with that, its 2 am and im on spring break(still high school)... (except theres one minor point to be fucked with..,
