hey everyone how are your holidays going if your on any[8D], anyways I think im going to do the JDM D15B swap instead of the mini-me build. My question is what is the best d-series tranny to combine with this engine? What trans does a JDM D15B come with anyways? I have found an engine I like with low km on it and plan on eventually turboing it, as my d15b7 is tired and old with 185000km on it. Thanks

 

only 185000kms? that's it? hell that isn't even half of it's life, i have over 300,000kms on mine, and she runs like a champ

 

damn! mine runs good still, really good its just slow for my liking now. Hey fiirkan, is yours a d15b7? Have you done anything to your civic engine/exhaust wise or is it just stock. Thats why I feel guilty if I swap, its low km on the engine and no problems with it just like yours. Im thinking of selling it here in the new year while t school in calgary, and then buying something else with ac, mabey another honda.

 

D15B7, AEM SRI, APEXi WS2 catback. and i pound the **** out of that thing all the time it's the only way to keep myself occupied from the auto tranny

 

lol cool, you make me feel better about my engine, I think ill just drive the hell out of her until it falls apart too! Is that sri a dryflow intake? And hows that ws2? Thanks fiirkan! Have a merry christmas man.

 

I have a jdm d15b turbo. Mine came with an lsd tranny.

 

Yeah it's an AEM Dryflow, and the WS2 is good but i have 2 bones to pick right now, 1) it makes a wierd humming noise everynow and then, and i don't know why, and 2) it keeps hitting the mounting poing for the trailing arm and drives me nuts, but that is more so cause the cat i have now is shorter then my old one[:@]

Honestly though man, if you want more power, just swap i wasn't saying to not swap, just that you said your car had alot of km's on it when it doesn't lol. once i get the money i'm planning on swapping, more so cause i want a manual again. but i figure if i pull the tranny and motor i may as well put something good in place
