we were saying that if i got a cable tranny and got a b18a then i wouldn't have to worry about swaping a hydrolic clutch, and the reason tat would be hard is because i only want a gsr or a b16 tranny and the gsr tranny is hard to find in cable, it only comes in 93 and that is very rare to find. and i live in cali en i want to get this engine smogged, soo get a b18a(if i can find a vtec tranny) and put the b18b mani on there?

o.k., i thought you wanted any hydrolic tranny. the b18a/b has a very good transmission (ys1) why wouldn't you want to use that? i don't know about cali's smog laws, but what difference would it make if you got a b18b? you said "get a b18a and pu the b18b mani on there?" why wouldn't you want the b18b? it would more than likely have less miles. i thought you could put newer engines in just not older engines in cali??

ya forget i said n e thing about smog...cuz i jez typed that sentence randomly on accident and basiclly comes down to could u get a b18b for the same price as a b18a? because i was thinking the b18a would be cheaper and their saying the only difference is the intake mani on the b is better, so i would put that on my a. and i'm not going turbo soo the LS gears are too tall...i want some shorter gearing.
