Well went to the track to run the car yesterday and on the third run went to shift to 2nd and there was nothing but another neutral gear So, I'm thinking of getting a JDM Type-S tranny, anyone know where you can get them resonable priced or how much they usually go for?? I'm planning on rebuilding mine but would rather be able to take my time with rebuilding it and have my car running with a different tranny for the time being.
hey...i personally like second gear...there's nothing like cruising the freeway going 30 in second gear....engine screaming, people honking...the sound of screeching tires....its exhilarating...
ok maybe this thread is screaming with sarcasm, but honestly...i DO like second gear...
seeing as how my car is basically stock and i cant get crazy speeds...
personally i love taking a sharp corner really fast and putting it into second gear while coming out of the turn.....mmmmmmm

If you're going JDM get the SiR S-Spec-it has LSD.
JDM Type S = USDM Type SH-it has ATTS.
But good luck finding one.

Thanks, I was wondering about that after I had already posted it, thanks again saves me a big expensive order/mistake. I might just be rebuilding mine if I can't find anything soon though, almost got it out today just need a friend or two to come help me drop it down and i'll be looking inside to see what else got damaged, hopefully nothing. Well a guess a good thing is I won't have to worry about 5th gear grinding again if I rebuild it
No prob man, just promise to help me when I get ready to do my 5-spd swap.
That is why I'm on top of the JDM tranny types and I know the SiR S-spec is super rare and really not worth importing( unless you have the SS) if you already have the 5-spd I'd say rebuild and put a Quaife LSD in that bad boy!
No more Peg-legged burn outs-especially with your JRSC
Good Luck
