i have a cheap offer for a b16 tranny just wondering if itll work with my engine and make it any faster or shorter gears for quicker acceleration. hopefully it will direct bolt on because that way i can upgrade my flywheel and clutch at the same time. thanks for your input

chris_si98

no it will not

I know a guy who's making adapter plates for it to work but imo not worth it.

get an SI tranny (thats the best of the d-series trannys) and upgrade your clutch/flywheel at the same time.

Direct bolt on, no. But adaptor plate is the solution.

Get a Y8 tranny, not as short as B16, but pretty decent for D series.

^^ charles it seems like he drives an EF, so y8 tranny would be a big no-no

i was just told that my tranny is holding me back so i thought i better scrap it for something better, im still deciding which engine to swap in so i might not bother still thinking, i have enough for a b16 swap just barely so that might be my best bet for some quick power.

i Have to disagree, the best one is the d15b tranny comes with an lsd. Sorry i dont know the code off the top of my head.

imported_kIeRaN

yeah but are u aware at how rare they are?^^ also im not even sure if there is an lsd cable tranny

2006SiCivic

, I never said they werent hard to get, I was just saying that it is the best tranny.

imported_dr.drew1987

do you guys think a standard tranny from a ZC dohc 1.6L would be better than mine

imported_kIeRaN

well then in that case, i think the best tarnny is an lsd tranny from an ITR

imported_SaYjAiBaO

the stock lsd d series tranny still blows big dick. the ratio is still like 65/35. you're better off doing the half shaft mod on the car. but yeah b series tranny is doable but you might as well as put a fd in.

oops...double post.

For an 92-00 civic, i'd agree, but i believe he's got a EF so he can't use a hydro tranny. Hence, why i suggested a SI tranny. I've also heard (don't know from first hand experience) that the ZC (dohc) tranny had nice short gears as well.

it is possible. it takes some rigging and hard work...i will post a pick of the set up we made for the hydro in my ef.

not everyone has a machine shop at their disposal, not to mention fabbing skills.

What mounts did you have to use for that hydro tranny to work in your EF steve? Was this a b or d-series?
