I have an auto jdm b16 but i dont think it has a b16 tranny because when i tested out the gearing in 1st gear it went to 45mph @7k rpms and at 8200 rpms it went up to 55mph.
Why does it have such a long 1st gear?
how many mph does your 1st gear go up to?

 

^ it none f my buisness but why are u driving in D1 AND D2 for shouldnt u be in D4

 

why would you think that i'm driving it in those gears??
I never said i was driving it in those gears. I use the regular drive which is D4. ex. P R N (D) 3 2 1

 

well i wouldnt try that........ cause your trannys not built for that and a automatic IF ONE GEAR GOES OUT... your screwed.... its not like a manual when you can just skip a gear!

plus not to mention the hard wear on the motor being reved that high for so long!!!!


i would NEVER TRY THAT!!!!!!

 

you wouldnt try what?? CAN YOU PLEASE READ MY FIRST POST!!! What are you talking about, i put it in the regular gear and thats how high my engine revs i'm not forcing anything on my engine. I drive it regular but when i go WOT thats what it does and it goes to 2nd gear and 3rd and so on. I guess you dont get what i'm tring to say.

 

all i need to know ishow many mph does your 1st gear go up to with a b16 or a b18 swap because my swap goes up to 55mph in 1st gear @ 8200rpms, is that normal for a b16 or a b18 swap?

 

well how much pedal you giving it........... i see what ya mean now....

but if your stomping the pedal i can see how it would go that high BUT for normal driving it shouldnt go that high at all!

 

nah i mean when i'm racing and i have the pedal all the way down, thats when it goes that high,thats y i said at WOT. wide open Throttle, just in case you didnt know what that ment

 

well if your stomping the gas and it does that.... ya i dont see a problem with it....... my stock motor goes preaty high before shifting when i have it floorboarded.......

 

yea but for a b16 isnt 55mph in 1st gear kind high since people say it's a close ratio tranny compared to the other b-series
