Yes your right! This is another one of those pointless threads with pictures of an install. Oh well, okay its not pointless. Check it out.

Job at Honda = Parts for cheap = Dealer Cost +10%

so after getting a job at Honda i was like hmm what do i want. USDM ITR is good, nothing can beat the jdm 4.78FD, but hey.

Retail Price:$2,257.83
My Price: $1,613.87 (Inc. Tax)
3 Quarts MTF: $3.03

Well the new tranny was amazingly new?? Well after opening my box, i got a lot more than i expected. Came with the transmission of course, new throwout bearing, new release shaft and reverse sensor; all of these i thought it wouldnt come with.

Well here are the pics: Installation time: @3hrs, getting faster, but i should of done it at work with the lifts.

I had my friend Hank help (a.k.a. itslogics on here) and we knocked it out real quick!

.....enjoy....feel free to comment whatever?


The tranny on the box:
(notice LSD)

Me: Excited

My Car:Naked with no front bumper

Friend Hanks car, had a SI lip on it until he hit some board on the highway

Hank and Andy: Excited about LSD!


Driveway install:

night and day!

Like going from poo brown interior to black leather. I will never go back!
hah

But its geared a lot better than the gsr, lsd so on stock suspension i get much more traction. And much better scratches.

No but my "insurance settlement" paid for the tranny, motors, and turbo setup on the integ.

JERKthisDC2

hey thats about the right price a gee for LSD and 6 for type r tranns nice!!!
!

StatGSR

very nice, just put my type-r tranny in at the begining of the month, but i got mine for 500 bux plus my GSR tranny(w/ 162K on it). would be cool to go new tho. i gota good friend who also gota new type r tranny for about that price for his LS. but yea, isnt this tranny just **** on a GSR? im loving it so far.

boostedek9

ouch, well its cool you got the tranny for the average price brand new (their were a few on ebay selling for 1600 shipped when I thought I'd blew mine)...they were brand new ofcourse but you got it for a reasonable price since its new. Type r tranny = fun lol..I have the same setup but in an ek....have fun man

Uncle Willie

Can you use the stock gsr shifter/linkage on the type r tranny? I think its the same but just wondering if you need a new shifter/linkage for it.

And how heavy is that trans?

StatGSR

yes u can use stock linkage and axles.

i really dont know why someone brought up an old thread just to say that... but whatever

congrats on the good deal.

omg_miiiike

Upping an old thread, since you did it by yourself-and I am not really knowledgeable about replacing a transmission; is there some kind of 'how-to' you can post on here? Roughly time/tools/etc.

racebum

you can't really price new vs used. jdm itr boxes go for $1200 from the importers. he only paid 400 more for brand new. i also bought a new itr transmission a few years ago........i only paid $1250 shipped you get peace of mind knowing it isn't going to grind or have issues, it's also a major plus for resale.
