B-series gearbox question

[shiroitenshi]

i got tepr r lma.. hehe

Yeah.. plonking in those.. getting new ones. :P

Now debating if I can stretch just a bit futher for flat valves, but new tires and timing belt/water pump maintainance bill coming soon :P

 

[hattech-v]

Since bukit akina is my route everyday, I need more torque. seem like dis 4.7FD is the answer. Heard dat dis 4.7 kill your top speed but not everyday i used heway.

aduiii...found only RM30.45 inside my chicken tabung. Need to korek the watermelon tabung after dis :P

not very obvious the speed different. can easily get 220kmph... if compare to 4.4 u'll be at 220 faster than 4.4. by that time if found that u already on ur top speed then slow down to show that u give chance to 4.4 laa... haha

For the LMA or the flat valves? (O_o)

Actually I'm not even sure it's called the LMA.. for me, it looks like a bullet, a spring loaded tip, and the mid rocker sits on it.. (O_o)

From what i've heard, this parts usually fails if you rev too high without v-tec turning on because the mid rocker floats on this, causing wear and etc.

beside the 4.7 fd from the itr, what other fd ratio could i get? beside the R, the rest going to cost way more? the cap sudu stuff never come cheap :(

off topic: beside valve spring & retainers, what else is important to prevent crash boom bang during high rev?

 

[hattech-v]

4.9 and 5.0

to prevent damage during hi rev
- good vs
- good retainer
- good timing belt
- good rev cut point

 

[shiroitenshi]

5.0 by what company?

I think the concern would be with the fifth gear with 5.0.. I think for 100kmh crusing with a .747 fifth gear (I think around there for the R/GSR G/box, not bothering to look up the spec sheet, so it may be off a bit) the engine speed will be 4K or so.. Don't think this is a concern for track cars, but for street cars.

so which the ratio to be used for 5th then for daily drivers?

I think the choice of FD ratios kind of depends on the powerband of the engine though.
if you have a lot of torque in the 7-9K range, then I think higher FD ratios can help you net faster times.

hopefully I'll get a gearbox at the end of december to test.

what sort of application are you doing? track? drag? autocross? no speed limit highways?

lowering the final drives are not an answer to all. u can always change your individual gears. or even use better tyres to for traction.

u have to try it to know since everyone has different setup and torque.

beside the 4.7 fd from the itr, what other fd ratio could i get? beside the R, the rest going to cost way more? the cap sudu stuff never come cheap :(

mainly street driving and sometimes drag. my 4.4 fd seems not ideal for drag.

guys...if wanna change to manual b series gearbox...whats the price for the auto gearbox can be sell or trade in?

 

[SA6YEuro]

guys, i always wondered in terms of the g/box housing size, is the eg9 say the y21 n the ek9 say the s4c the same size...... n would the s4c fit in the eg easily or some mods is needed?

 

[hattech-v]

its plug n play. gbox housing is same.

 

[SA6YEuro]

hattech, nice talkin 2 u...

i wonder u know any1 tt has done this b4? fittin a hydro gbox in2 a original cable tranny chasis of the DA6.....

actually i got this idea from the 92 DA6..... this model wif the vtec besar runs on a hydro tranny exactly like the EGs.... the rational is the mounting should b the same... i think so...

any1 done anything like this b4?
