Honda is having quite a few problems with the K20 6 speeds. My kid has a 07 civic si and is on his third trans and his friend with a new accord coupe is starting to have problems. I don't know about the other guy but my kid knows how to drive a manual quite well. I am just mentioning this as you can still change your mind if you want.

Have you ever considered going with a W Series, or V160 Supra Transmission? there's different companies that make conversion bell housings for 13b's you could even have a custom bell housing/adapter plate made for a T56 6 Speed which is practically bullet proof.
There's alot of really stout Transmission setups out there. i don't recall many Honda's having good tranny's. my friend has a daily driven S2000 that he never shifts aggressive, or misses gears on, and so far he's on his 3rd... smart kid, well kept car, just glass driveline...

Hmm this threads interesting. I Personaly know/ driven many B18 powered hondas some with gsr trannys some LS, all of them go from high tens (10.98) to high 9's. all on stock trannys. Honda trannys are actually very stout from personal experience. K' series trannys suck. period.

won't work, the B engines, actually all honda motors except the s2000, spin backwards from every other engine on the planet.

I'm not hating or being a smart *** because this is new territory for me as well, but how the hell did this guy do it then?

the race car is a B series, and the trans is on the other side of the engine bay!
DUDE all that fab (they smoothed the irons!) and they used the stock S4 turbo manifold?

Not to threadjack or anything, but I daily drove my S2000 for nearly 3 years, alot of that time being boosted. Never had a tranny problem. A local guy was running deep 11s with his, upgraded diff but stock tranny. They arent the strongest things in the world, but unless abused hold up just fine.

us rotary people spend hours making sure everything under the hood is built to .00002" or tighter tolerances, but the outside of the car hasn't been washed since 1987....

So I take it this is something everyone would be interested in? especially if they don't have to pay 40K for one powered by a Honda. In truth I'll probably finish this then trade for a reasonably built FD, then build another one to torment the corvettes and mustang cobra's locally.
On another note I would like some input on the design and suggestions from everyone. I'm planning on making this road legal. BNR stage 3 turbo S4 engine upgraded injectors and probably the stock computer for starters. I'm tightening up the frame design in solidworks as I get time.

I did think about using a renni. The thing is I've got 5 engines sitting on my shop floor and none of them are renni's. One of our local guys works at the Mazda shop and told me that any bad rennesis goes back to japan for refurbishment. Frankly that sucks for me unless I come across a wrecked RX8, and I have yet to see one of those in the junk yard and I'm looking hard because I want the seats.
