_oh man that’s not good brother …I got my gearbox built before the motor, Gear-X gen.2 with the revised 1st & 2nd gear ratio’s, I’m only push’n 450whp but I make 370ft/lb @4000rpm so I needed to get forged gears and later on, the rods_ … _agree 100% about having the feeling something would let go, so great advice to your viewers 👍🏼_ … _love your videos and hope you’re back on the road fast_
Put the 5 speed in my rsx making about 400. Blew 2nd twice. Finally rebuilt my 6 speed with mfactory. 1-4 and tsx 6th gear. Holds the power for now lol.
I went through 2 AWD k series gearboxes on my rsx and only at 430 hp but it’s because it hooks and small turbo. Had to go gear x. But I don’t regret going AWD, goes straight, doesn’t spin and no LSD. Just counting the days on my 5 speed on my K swap MR2 making 500hp. FYI I’m in Virginia, hoping one day we cross paths and line up ;)
I'm selling one if you are interested awd k series Albins helical 1-2 3.0 & 2.0 ratios with M Factory LSD AWD and 725 Twin disc k-series everything brand new car still at the shop no race or street hits
Mine lasted for like year but it depends. Just go for gear x 1-4,type s 5 and tsx 6th with 4.3 final. Its a great setup. Also a good lsd. Si lsd is good but can only do so much. I went with wavetrac on mines
You playing with fire on stock 6spd trannies for OEM the 5spd is best whether it's from a ep3 or a base model rsx. Ep3 will drop out of the powerband in 2nd but longer gearing the base model is pretty beast plus you gotta different fd in it
@@donaldgeterjr8180 yea the only thing is the cruising on 5 speed on the highway isn’t ideal but I agree the ratios are wayyy more favorable but staying with the 6 for now
Alot of people tend to put high power in the engine and not worry about the transmission. Im planning on adding ppg gearsets to my rsx 5 speed this winter

@heddyasdart5028 I forgot you can still run an awd transmission on a fwd as long as you have a block off for the transfer case. How much? And is it 5 speed?
Would love a answer to this bro. have you ever race any turboed or supercharged 8th gen civic si? making similiar or more power? I know the platforms are similar, not sure whether to build my rsxs or 8th gen. for street racing in mexico ;)
I blew mines 2nd gear with 525whp with r888 225 45 15. On a 70 degree day in a delsol chassis. Stock k series trans are like glass. Time for gear x or dog engagement gears.
I would just use the original 6spd from your RSX and refresh it and put that Si LSD from the broken tranny and you be GUCCI on a budget. Millions of Hondaboys rock with stock tranny and high horsepower. Just an idea. Your build ultimately. so....
@@notone4029 If the stock one would last I would fr but I just don’t see it having much longevity bro. If I don’t have to get a built trans id rather not but it’s leaning that way rn

Also go to awd housing if your planning to awd. You can use a block off plate for the tcase. Wish i did this before lol
@@adrianvega4817 I appreciate the advice bro 🏎🙏
Brutal dude. Part of the game we play though doing the fun stuff! Excited for your next moves. Definitely wanting to boost my rsx.
Yessir you right bro it’s all worth it when you’re back up on the roaddd! I highly recommend boosting it haha
