    R154 1st gear problems

    It sound like you're going to need a new thrust washer and a first gear.

    Kai you're the man. I've been looking for a third gear. Thanks man.

    When is transmission gear replacement needed?

    What you're saying is clear. Second gear looks good and third looks like it has some slightly rounded teeth and could give you grinding issues going into gear.

    New Gears...Where To Buy??

    I need a new third gear for this R154 I'm rebuilding, do you guys know a good place to buy them from? Can Curt get them through Elmhurst?

    When is transmission gear replacement needed?

    Your second gear has a few teeth that are more rounded than you'd really like. From the pictures, third actually looks pretty useable. Every trans is different though, that second would be fine on a civic, but on these that looks to be enough to cause you issues.

    A few of my friends run at Shawano and I plan to with the Supra once it's done. It will be ready for straight line racing by Automotion, but won't be track worthy till late July. I do have full suspension on my challenger but I really don't want to stuff a car I'm still making payments on into...

    Dave - I'm going to be non-vvti until next year because I'm running smaller (264) cams this year because I'll still be stock compression and I don't want to spend 1100 bucks on Titans 264 vvti cams just to run for one summer. Next year after building the motor and bumping up compression I'll...

    Valves a little way too loud

    Double agree. However, if you measure and need a shim that is xx size and you have a used one that is xx size then by all means use it. Those things are so fucking hard it doesn't make sense. I've never seen a properly installed shim/bucket actually wear. All the cam really does is polish...

    Possible clutch slave cylinder went out

    ^ What these guys said. Your master cylinder literally bolts directly to the clutch pedal. You either have a rip or leak in the rubber seal for the piston that the clutch pedal engages, or somehow your line is leaking and it's getting in the car but that seems less likely. Climb upside down...

    I'm not much for build threads, but I thought it would be nice to get some feedback from you local guys. I've got a lot going on with this and sometimes it gets to be a pain to keep track of it all but hopefully the results will be worth it. Here's the transplant recipient that I picked up a...

    Tranny Question.

    The bell housing is specific to the motor, not the trans. If it is from a w58, it will fit any w58.

    Tranny Question.

    Transmissions are the same, the bell housing is different. 7M w58= 7m bell housing 2J w58 = 2J bell housing. The bell housings do not mix and match. You've pretty much answered your own question.

    Going to E85 and have questions about fuel lines and pump wiring.

    Filters are very important when switching to E85. Check them often in the first few months of running it because the E85 will dissolve a lot of BS that was building in your fuel system from pump gas. That free flowing BS will end up in your filters and clog them up quick.

    I should probably get some pictures up of my project. I don't know any of the WI people on here. I somewhat met Chip when I was ordering some parts but that's about it.
