Using my stock tach I'm shifting at 7300-7400 It cuts out at 7500, and I'm using Kumho 512's (195's).

One,The tranny's gearing and final drive sucks.And most nissan guys run street tires.

i know swapping in a 16ve tranny would be a great move for hitting the track. but will it truely improve your 1/4 times.

SR16 tranny is like running a honda tranny. The gearing is about the same or not off by much. They only thing left would be weight. I'm sure we have about 200lbs on them.

chirpin4th · 07-26-2005, 10:42 PM

which honda tranny are you referring to? I had a S1, and 3rd gear pulls from stoplight were no problem.... but 80mph was 4900 rpm's

Yea this is true but some honda jdm trannys come with 4.8 F.D. Its not something you want for dailydriving but Im looking into getting a 5.1 F.D.

chirpin4th · 07-28-2005, 05:26 PM

^^^ S1 I think.... this is the one they usually swap with the ys1 5th gear....I think.

chirpin4th · 08-03-2005, 06:12 PM

^^ The s80 from 98+ ITR has 4.75 FD, Most of the other B-series trannys are 4.4.(cable). There is another s80 hydro tranny that is somthin' like 4.3?

I don't have it yet.Right now I have my b15 tranny sent out to a company so they can take it apart and give me a price on the 5.1.I choose 5.1 because most guys in allmotor street class(hondas and VW) run anywhere from 4.8-5.1 F.D for 1/4 mile and have good results.From speaking to the company it looks like it will cost 1,000 or more

NismoNx2000 · 08-04-2005, 06:44 PM

Well, as soon as my suspension is done I will be heading out to E-Town probably in the fall when the weather cools off a bit. I havent really seen too many people run with the sr16ve. My sr16 came with the sr16 tranny also, and when my ecu is done I will be able to rev to 8500. With these two elements combined, im hoping to get the most out of my 1.6 litre.
