transmission?

[importtunerman]

i am new to tegs and hondas and have a 1990 integra ls four door b18a1 vtec and need to kno wat short throw shift trnsmission i could put on it and if its possible...

Are you asking what short shifter you should get?

 

[Samurai_Blue]

you are making many contradictions...1. b18a never had vtec, unless you have a ls vtec. and 2. short throw transmissions dont exist. you either get a short throw shifter or a shorter final driver for your transmission. since i think you want short throw shifter get a b&m

ya i dont kno the first think bout honda engines and everything i have read said b18a is non vtec but everyone that has seen it says it has the wires so im confused on that and the transmission wats short final drive?

 

[TegSox]

B18a is non-VTEC. It came in all 90-93 Integra's except the GSR. 90-93 (92 was the first year of the GSR, actually) GSR's got a B17a, which is VTEC.

so is there any way to put vtec on my engine or do i just need a swap

 

[TegSox]

You can do an LS/VTEC to your engine, or you can swap in a whole VTEC engine.

you may be wired for vtec or have a ls vtec already. does your motor say DOHC VTEC on the top or no?
and a short final drive makes the gears shorter so you can get up to speed faster

no it doesnt and thats the first reason i didnt think it did and how do i do that to my transmission cuz thats also wat i want

Instead of replacing the transmission gears, just get a GSR or a jdm b16 cable trans. Much easier than changing out the final drive. I believe the GSR trans is a YS1 and the jdm b16 is a y1(could be S1 though, I always get those two confused).

Not as simple. I believe there is cutting and welding involved. Read up on some swaps.

h22 tranny is longer than a ls

http://www.explicitspeedperformance.net/TBS.html has a how to on a DA to h22 swap, they even sell the mounts. you're best bet is to just read as much as you can before you start throwing money around.
