B17 transmissions are getting a little more rare(considering they were only made for two years in just one trim); JDM B16 transmissions(from the Integras) should be easier to procure and have similar if not the same gear ratios, though may cost a little more. Around here I've only seen maybe 2-3 B17 transmissions for sale in the past ~2 years; but by all means if you can get a B17 transmission go for it! But, as stated before, for daily driving, the LS is completely fine.
For the intake, metal intakes are a huge issue but any reputable brand(AEM, Injen, etc.) should make intakes that clear the battery and work with a B-series swap. Though, a battery relocation does make using different intakes easier and reduces the chances of the intake causing a short.
jdm b16 lsd...so b16 cable or b17a??? what's better if I can get either one???
well its good, but i had asked in a different thread abt changing out my clutch and k2e2vin said that it should be cool, but he did recommend going with a b16 tranny...what do you recommend as far as tranny???and lumpskie thanx, but is it a short ram intake???
