Ls Or Gsr

[Bryan_M]

yeah $2,200 is a little pricey for an ls swap, but it's from a good reliable site. not to mention it's the only site i've seen that sells the entire swap with a 5 speed tranny...the rest are motor only.

i don't wanna spend the money for ls/vtec or crvtec right now, but i could get it done a ways down the road. i'll probably just leave it non-vtec and boost it though.

b20 with an itr trans sounds like a good idea to me. maybe the next honda i get, if i get another will have that setup

[Bryan_M]

it sounds good to me too, but i still need to know this.

what all besides the engine and a B series tranny would i need? what kinda shift linkage, ecu, axles, etc. would i need?

You can use any B series hydro trans, LS, GS, GSR, SI, ITR. whatever motor you get get the same ECU with the motor, so if you get a GSR get a p72. And you need 94+ GSR axles with half shaft. and get a dual bend shift linkage.

if i did go b20 i would definitely get either a gsr or itr tranny with an lsd. i wouldn't use the b20 ecu would i?

He should be able to use any Bseries axles. Make sure if you have ABS that they have the ABS ring on the axles.

With a B20 you would use an LS ECU, LS intake manifold, and the Bseries hydro tranny of your choice.

so all B-series axles are the same?

if all i need for a B20 swap is the engine, B-series tranny, ls ecu, ls intake manifold, and B-series axles i'll definitely go for it. looks like the only hard part is gonna be to find a B20z.

you sure about this? cause my GSR intermediate shaft and my B16 intermediate shaft are way different in length and how they plug into the shaft.

Well I know people who have switched from a B16 in an SI to a GSR/LSVTEC/ETC and reused their B16 axles.
