Have never heard anything bad about them, Multiple friends have bought from them and been happy.

If I wasn't going to go with hmotorsonline, It would be with tigerjapanese.

They are a little bit cheaper then hmotorsonline. I have also heard good things about them. I will be picking up an OBD1 b18b full swap from them as its a good deal cheaper. (1290 + shipping vs 2000 + Shipping)

i got my GSR swap from Hmotors..online..
with the LSD.. and love it... it helps resale too.. that lil stamp they put on the block works... i almost broke even and drove on it for over a year.

the lsd one has different gears than the itr right? that one guy told me that the itr would be bad for boost

as far as i know ... an ls tranny is good for boost .. long gears .. i have an all motor car so i swapped for a b16 tranny ..much beter.

so an ls or b16 tranny would be beter for boosting than a lsd gsr tranny

in my opinion an ls tranny is best for boost.
all motor app. would be b16 tranny.

thanks

any time man.. some other people will prob post up ... who have gone through all the trannys boosted and non.. but hey my buddys got 450hp truly built b16 turbo...and runs an ls tranny and he mostly runs high way pulls but also is his daily.... and switchin my gsr to a b16 tranny ,really helps the power get down.

I would never use an LS tranny for anything. Boost or not. GSR or B16a. Both will be fine with boost or all motor.

my buddy got a motor from Hmotors and he said it was an awesome experience. Good customer service, fast shipping, and the people are very knowledgable about swapping and such in case you have any issues

Hmotorsonline FTW

thanks to evryone im going to go with hmotors for sure

b18c here i come

I know this thread is almost a month old, but I felt the need to clarify a bit.

Greasedmonkey: B16A/B16B/ITR transmissions have soooper short gearing. Very bad for boost. No time for the turbo to spool completely because you have to shift so quickly. LS is pretty damn long as you know, but would be ideal for your 500+fwhp highway monsters that roll from 40mph or whatever. GSR is the best all around tranny for boosted applications. Whatever you do, don't throw a GSR tranny on the boosted engine and expect a stupid fast car because of the gearing. The slightly longer gearing simply allows the power to be harnessed to it's fullest extent instead of bled off through the blowoff valve or wastegate as with a B16A/B16B/ITR tranny.

I don't mean to harp or tell anyone off, but I wouldn't want someone to see that you can use a B16 tranny on a boosted application and come back to say "eff you guys you told me to use this tranny and i blew my shit up."

Can you dig it?

thank you for clearing things up
