B18 to a B16 Transmission Swap
 

So after having all of my transmission problems I bought a transmission from a crx. I just did some work on it last weekend and I'm almost done, I have the tranny all in place sitting on the mounts. I just have to hook everything back up and I'm currently waiting for 2 ball joints and a C.V. boot to arrive. Here are some pictures.

The new clutch. I was on a budget and saw mixed reviews on these clutch's so I thought, why not find out for myself. In total it costed me $160 shipped to my door. It included: Clutch, it said it was a Stage 2. The only thing I noticed were the springs were double springed. Pressure plate, alignment tool, pilot bearing, and throw-out bearing.

So when I pulled out my old clutch this is how I found it.

New and old clutch.

Attachment 9331
The pressure plate I bought had some bad machining marks on it that werent in a good pattern for a clutch so I fluffed it up. This should also help the clutch break-in period.

Clutch and pressure plate installed.

The new and old tranny.

We had some troubles getting a good grip on the tranny from above so we made a handle that would bolt into where one of the tranny mounts would go.

So its almost complete! Hopefully I'll have it back on the road soon.

WOOOT. Good work

This is a reason why I never bother pulling transmission out like that. I just yank the engine out with the transmission. A lot easier.

Gj though.

Looking good. You'll love the shorter gearing, it's ridiculous fun in the city.

Great pictures of the process. And good work on it man. Nothing feels better then doing jobs like this on your own ride. Props!
