how do I know when I got vtec?

[elsombradelsol]

^^^Again. You will never be able to tell the difference with a properly tuned VTEC crossover.

Sounds like someone hasn't ridden in a ITR before...... A corpse can feel that crossover!
BTW, you can install an LED mounted anywhere you want(prefferably in the dash) to light when VTEC engages. It only takes about 10 minutes to hook up, just do a search for it.

I know my brother's car screams like a psycho, but he's got a gsr/b16, so yeah. I'd install the light

I

Put a piece of rubber between your intake and positive battery terminal, right now! You don't want that to arc.

I totally second that, ive seen fires start from that shit. Thats why I got smart and put rubber between mine.

As for that trans noise, Iam wondering what it is to. cause my buddys old 98si rex did the same thing but we never could find the problem and nothing mechanicly was effected.

 

[daveholiday]

lol i didn't know they made rex's in 98

 

[Ryma]

blah blah typing to fast you knew what I ment.

 

[daveholiday]

haha yeah I got you

 

[twinvtec]

still the same noise

The noise still there and my friend told me that the noise is coming from the tranny front shaft bearing. I got a new tranny for the engine, the stamped # is L3-1and the old tranny# is L3-2 . Can anyone tell me what is the difference betwen the L3-1 and L3-2 trannies?

 

[91si]

change ur throw out bearing.

 

[twinvtec]

THat is not the problem because I instaled a new throw out bearing when I put in the new tranny. The problem is the tranny itself. But can anyone tell me the difference between the two trannies L3-1 and L3-2?

 

[daveholiday]

I honestly have no idea

 

[91si]

throw out bearings can go bad easily. but i dont know the diff between trans sorry.
