bkirshr's big choice *looking for comments*

Lol. Takes a little more practice than watching the first 2 minutes of the fast and the furious. You will die out and squeal tires in front of cops, at least I did.

Keep your engine, do the 5 speed.

haha yeah, I realize its probably a lot different than I think.

btw, I watched 5 minutes..

EDIT: What does everyone think of the parts car I found? (I put the link in the OP) he wants 2500 for the whole engine/tranny.. or I could just get the tranny/other stuff and trade the GSR for an Si transmission. I saw a guy on FB that wants a GSR for his brand new Si

I never really though about getting a whole donor car actually, just find parts here and there. But that actually makes a lot more sense. The trick would be I guess is to find an integra with a B16 tranny in it that's only for parts

I would get the transmission you want to put in your car, then get cheap 5-speed shell/beater car to use for parts, not for the transmission.

Yeah, that makes sense to do it that way, but I found a kid who wants to trade his brand new Si trans with 997 miles on it for a GSR trans.. that's where I was going with tha\t thought haha

thanks man, I may have to take up up on that actually. have you ever done a swap before?

nope, no swaps. I did install a full exhaust on a v6 Eclipse though :lol:

Youre thinking too small. Either one of those options you end up with a gsr trans. Brand new b16 trans straight trade? Better get the full story on that trans. I dont see a purpose in that trade.

Gsr swap

 

[integswap94]

I would do the gsr swap and just put a stage 3 exedy clutch system in to make it last better incase your into drag racing and shift hard but if your just into cruising just a simple gsr clutch will do fine with a b16 swap and your good too go until you deffinatly decide what you wanna do with the car

you have a point. It's not like I've driven a GSR and an Si trans to really know the difference, so I guess it really doesn't matter.

I'd probably get a stage 1, but that's about it. It's just a daily, no real hard strain on the trans.

Gsr swap

lets be real here, it's not like mine would be even as close to as clean as yours anyway, so what's the point? hahaha
