Re: B18A1 motor
my last account was from like 06 07, still not long, but i've been in the honda game a long time, there was a time before when you didn't know a damn thing yourself....whats the big deal about trying to help someone else, i'm sure you used to ask fucking questions

Re: B18A1 motor
well if it makes someone stupid to ask a not so stupid question then what the fuck. some people like myself would just rather ask someone that knows a little bit more about it and has done it before because most of the time the answer is better to hear from someone who knows something, half the shit you find on the internet is bullshit anyway.

Re: B18A1 motor
"You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to idriveahonda again. " and also model/year the motor is going into..im guessing from the op's thread having a b18a1(older integra engine) usually goes back into the same OBD0 factory car(which all had cable transmissions). do you OP understand all of this? op do you also know that some of the b18a1's have different size spline for the 90-91 have smaller and 92-93 have a larger spline like the hydro transmissions....you really should do some research

Re: B18A1 motor
Well, I grew up before the internet so I learned by doing and making mistakes. Even then I tried to figure something out by searching before asking someone.

Re: B18A1 motor
i agree, trying to figure it out on your own is the way to go, thats how you learn, i've got tons of trial and error experience but usually if i ask a question its because i've already tried to find the answer else where and nothing is there.

Re: B18A1 motor
i asked a buddy of mine the same question cause i'm in search of a tranny to put on my b1 for my dd, he explained it that the gsr would be better because a b16 tranny is geared for the better torque at low rpm's and the b16 typically revs higher than the b18, as to where the gsr has the shorter gears for higher rpm torque and don't rev as high, specially the b1, it has a 7200 redline on a factory tune, i had a gsr on a b1 before and it pulled great so thats what i'm going to go with again, if that makes any sense at all? i don't like to think i know it all so, i hope i didn't get that backwards, end result, i've heard more better things about a gsr tranny on a b1 than a b16 tranny
