I have a slight crack in my tranny. Can I replace my casing with a GSR casing?

 

yes you can... the only problem you might have is the LSD bearing race. Honda uses two different races.... there is the removable cone race and the normal race that is part of the housing. When I installed my turbo setup I changed my from the "good for NA" Y21 EG6 tarnny to my old S80 GSR tranny. My GSR tranny didn't use cone bearings so I used a hammer and punch to carefully remove the race from the Y21 and then use the same hammer with a large socket to install the races into the Y80 tranny.

 

No need to replace the casing, JB Weld it!

 

Crossett is right, if the crack isn't too big, just JB Weld the sucker...

If the crack is too big and JB weld won't stop the leak. Can I also use a 1995 LS tranny? Cause I have an extra LS tranny sitting in my garage.

 

I'm assuming you have a type r... why on earth would you want to put an LS tranny in her !?

 

Your assumption is correct. I do have a Type tranny. I was stating that "is it possible to put my Type R gears and internals of the Type R tranny into a 95 LS tranny casing."

 

Ah I see. I'll say yes, I think so, but can anyone confirm that all B-series cases are compatable?

I'd JB Weld it first though, I would just do the outside first and see if that worked.

 

My friend had her's weld back together on her 00SI... She got into a big accident which cracked the transfer case(about 2"inchs long) and she called me when her gears were slipping out of 5th... She was on her way back from a road trip and was about 130miles away... I asked her to check if there was any trans fluid leaking and there was at the welding point... The crack was where the trans stablizer mount was at... So i dont recommend it... To what i kno, all B series tranny have the same transfer case, so i think all gears would fit...

 

A friend of mine has a 1991 MR2 turbo. The car puts about 300 to the ground. He was at a drag strip one night when a hard launch (1.6 60') sheared a piece of a gear off and put in through the tranny casing. He cut himself a patch and JB welded it on. That was about 9000 miles ago and he hasnt had any problems.

 

sack....

I confirmed your question in my post...

 

Thanks for all the Info. Muchly appreciated

 

No you didn't, you said that a GS-R tranny would work. Then he asked about an LS casing
