Hey guys!

Need some help here. Is there any difference between the gearbox of a VTi Civic, a Si Civic, an Integra VTi-R and an Integra Type-R?

And usually how much will they cost to get a second hand one?

Any idea?

Thanks ! :)

Teg type R and VTIR are B series engines!

Vti and SI are D series engines!

B series arent compatible with D series,

prices can vary depending on condition.

Ie vti=Si gearbox.

Errmmm so that means that a B series gearbox is better compared to the D series? Much more stronger?

In any case, if i were to swap a B series motor in, i need a B series gearbox of any type either a teg or a civic?

So that means that I cant use back the D series gearbox huh?

oh shit, more money! :(

400 is a bit expensive, but its what to be expected when bought from a wreaker (sohgc vtec engines+box's have gone for ~600 on the forum).
Needless to say, i think u will be the best judge (different between box's), but i rekon u will notice the better gear ratios!
