No, but why would you want to do this?

00EckoSI · 11-07-2009, 08:42 AM

its something that i want to do

nemisish20 · 11-07-2009, 08:49 AM

kseries rotate the other direction. Unless u want 6 reverse gears go for it.

00EckoSI · 11-07-2009, 08:53 AM

what 6spd tranny would even bolt up to a b16

Deetz · 11-07-2009, 08:54 AM

you also can't modify the inside of a b series tranny to take one either. I would give up on the idea

00EckoSI · 11-07-2009, 08:55 AM

im not going to break my bank to do this i was just wondering if it was possible at all

only way to do a 6-speed on your car is to do a K swap

that_boy_sammy · 11-07-2009, 09:13 AM

ive never had enough space to even reach the end of my 5th gear

00EckoSI · 11-07-2009, 09:15 AM

ive came close a couple times..ive driven 6pds before and i like them i was just wondering if it was possible..guess its not because im not doing a k swap i like the b16 motor

nemisish20 · 11-07-2009, 09:17 AM

Listen broski. Dont stress it. If you like having a low gear on the highway just get a GSR trans and put an LS 5th gear in it. Not really worth it. Stick with the b16.

00EckoSI · 11-07-2009, 09:18 AM

haha im just gonna stick with what i have and continue to work on the "boost" project

Deetz · 11-07-2009, 09:21 AM

You know the thing that kills me about these threads is people don't understand the gearing. You don't get an extra high gear the addition of a 6th gear, lol

i'll give you an example.....

The 02-04 RSX, the 1st gear and 5th gear in a base model, are the "same" gears found on the 1st gear and 6th gear on the 6 speed type S model. The "only" advantage you get, is the gearing in between.

you dont get a high gear. It just another gear. If anything it helps get better Gas mileage.

vtectouge · 11-07-2009, 09:30 AM

Ive seen one in Thailand b18c block with a b16b head, never seen on a b16a before accept in GT4

hihi, a custom gearbox will do but it cost more then a k swap..

00EckoSI · 11-07-2009, 09:33 AM

yeh im just going to stick with my boost project

jcdimvic · 11-07-2009, 11:56 AM

I think you should boost the K, you get your boost and you get your six speeds.

uh.... wrong, you could go hella crazy and do an f20c swap, it's six speed and a rwd conversion

fastrxu · 11-07-2009, 05:13 PM

You could do a j swap and have 6 speeds

Dude you look up the civette you can do anything you want. Is it practical? Its up to u

another alternative: F2K. Keep your F20, keep it FWD, and you have 6 speeds!
