Tranny gone
 

Well i need to get my tranny rebuilt and the loubor cost is about $900 and dont know what parts.

Shitty f-ing deal.

What should i do, ride it out till it dies out then do a swap, scrap the car and get something else? What i ask you, What? :hithead:

Follow these steps:

1) Take out an ad in the paper advertising yourself as a gigolo
2) While earning money as a gigolo, continue to drive your car as you would daily
3) Buy a B18 or B16 engine. Continue being a gigolo.
4) When the tranny renders the car undrivable, swap the engine in.
5) Cry. For fack's sake you're nothing more than a common wh0re after all.

Note: steps 1 and 2 are optional. Steps 3, 4, and 5 are mandatory.

Auto or stick?

Do you plan to keep the car for alot longer? If so, it might not be a bad idea to fix it. If you plan to sell it soon, you could just buy a used tranny from one of the used Japanese auto part places around the city and then sell the car. :tup:

its stick, and well i would like to keep the car

keep it, just swap the engine...u can find a cheap b16 or b18 somewhere...maybe u can do h22, the prices dropped dramatically since the k20 came out

anyone got one for sale?

What is the av price for b16 or b18?

Hey Black_EL, you should talk to mikeweb. He's got a GSR swapped in to his car....did it himself too. Also you might want to ask Jaime (LOCO) for tips.

ooo crappy the tranny has died..

interesting cause mine is just about dead....except mine is an auto tranny...

if I were you....like it was said before, b-series motors have droped a lot..

what I would recommend for a very affordable swap, go with a B18B LS non-vtec
Jaime aka EL_Loco can probably hook u up with a motor

Whats the price on a b18 these days? can any one tell me. what would be a good price

Dunno know about the b18b, but I can get the b18c1 (GSR) installed w/ everything needed for about 3750 tax in. If that helps

Isnt it illegal to install a engine that is older then the car? Cause I have been told the only certify engine swap out here in califonia is a engine that is from a rsx or newer si k20.

Yes, it is, but his car is a 1.6EL - equivalent of a 6thgen Civic.

what he said LOL, the car is a 97 so i hope i will find the nice motor and tranny for that good sweet price.

I would install it myself but i dont have any room to do it

wen do you know your tranny is gone?
