Can you swap 1st gear in Honda Integra?
Swapping 1st or 2nd gear is not practical, because their mainshaft gears appear to be permanently attached. It will take more work to swap a Hydro transmission (like from a ’94-’01 Integra) into a car that was designed for a Cable transmission (’90-’93 Integras and most Hondas of that era), or vice versa.
What’s the transmission ratio on a Honda Integra?
The manual option appears to have only been offered on 4wd models, so you probably wont be able to bolt up the whole transmission, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the gears inside of it are compatible with other B-Series transmissions. Here are the ratios: 1st: 3.500; 2nd: 1.956; 3rd: 1.344; 4th: 1.071; 5th: 0.812; Final: 4.562
What’s the difference between a 96 and 98 spec Integra?
The new ITR (98 spec) is a fine car….. The 96 Spec ITR is raced (earlier on) in the Endurance race and it wins on lap consistancy.
Why is there no sprag in Honda transmissions?
This design is also noteworthy because it preserves engine braking by eliminating a sprag between first and second gears. Instead of a sprag or roller clutch, Honda’s older transmissions rely on pressure circuits to modulate line pressure to change gears.

What was the first Honda Integra Type R?
This was the first Integra Type R to reach European shores. And also the last. But its candle burned out long before its legend ever will, because this was the Type R-badged car that set the standard for every fast Honda that has since followed.
