OK.. ok... so putting in the FD trans is not going to work with out a lot of engineering. So ill go with the The TII trans. Why do i want to put in a TII trans in my NA gxl you ask? well, later things like supercharges are planed. And the NA trans is just not going to last long for that. Anyway, what is exactly needed to put a TII trans in a NA? So far i got this down: Trans, T2 flywheel, T2 clutch, Driveshaft, and diff. Is it the whole diff houseing of just the diff inside? What else do i need.

 

i believe it is the whole diff and halfshafts. I also think you'll need the front counterweight if your t2 flywheel is from a different series FC.

guys, correct me if I'm wrong.

 

ah ok, why not just beef up a N/A tranny? Pineapple can do it, they did it to a miata tranny and made it support 300 HP, and I dunt think you'll be running a SC more than that? Unless ur going with a turbo setup, then jus do a j-spec swap and get the tii tranny.

 

Because it'll be cheaper to get a TII transmission than "beef up" the NA one. To do the swap, you need:

-TII tranny (duh)
-TII flywheel
-TII clutch and pressure plate
-TII starter
-TII slave cylinder
-TII driveshaft
-TII differential
-TII axle-shafts (half shafts)

 

Aaron got it all listed. Thats what I used when I did mine.

Why not beef up the n/a? I have an extra T-II tranny that I will sell for $150. Pineaple can't beef it up for that cheap and I guarantee it still isn't as strong.

 

if you dont or cant use a t2 driveshaft you can use an automatic driveshaft but its not as beefy

 

im going to get a custom aluminum driveshaft if i do it.

 

alright fine, dunt listen to the little guy : )

 

rotary god what kind of condition is that tII tanny form and what series (if s4 or s5 matter)?

i am VERY interested

 

do i need a clutch disc or is that the same as a clutch plate?

 

if i have a 88 can i use 89-91 parts?

 

why would you need a TII slave cylinder? Do u need a different flex hose to or what?

 

I've also got a TII tranny (from an 87') in my 91' NAFC, and Aaron Cake mentioned everything you'll need.

rotory god i am interested in your tII tranny

 

Can you use the 87-88 T2 tranny in the 89-91 FC?

 

Yep, definitely. I have an 87' TII tranny in my 91' NA FC, and I've been driving it like that for over a year now with no problems.
