gear swappin help
Ok, i have a 92 JDM b16 SiR 2nd gen with LSD tranny (y21). I've been rebuilding it slowly and purchased an LS 5th gear from sohfast.com, but it looks nothing like the 5th gears i have.
the one on the right is mine. He said he sent me a 94-01 LS 5th gear, which is what is on the left. Looks more like 4th gear. So is it what he says it is? And if it is, then WTF gear do i need. I thought you could basically swap hydro gears between trannys.

You have the wrong parts. http://www.ff-squad.com/tech/temp/Bgears.htm This website you can count the teeth and make sure you have the wrong parts. I also got the wrong tranny parts from both honda and Acura. Check it out and work out a deal with your dealer.
Randy
PS I WILL PAY YOU FOR YOUR OLD 5th GEAR, or trade my LS 5th 92-93.

Nice info. I went through the trouble to make that exact same chart myself whenever I came across a different tranny. Oh well.

Re: gear swappin help
okay i counted the teeth, on the one that looks like a countershaft gear (has the extension on it) it has 29 teeth. The gear with the synchro cone has 35.
Only thing i could think of is that i have the correct 5th mainshaft gear and a 4th mainshaft gear. Does that make sense?

Re: gear swappin help
some people work for a living, well a few hours a night.
You got hosed, contact Jerome and get it corrected.
5th is thin, like the one on the right.
BTW, where is the other 1/2 o5 the gearSET?
That are called "GEARSETS" for a reason.
