i have ah b16a5 with ah 1800 auto tranny but for some reason i can't get the car to go passed 160km/h in D4 and 180in D3 its like the 4th gear has no power please somebody tell me what is the problem

Stop using your automatic like a manual!

Unless you want to buy another tranny... plus your car might be electronically limited to 180km... or it may just not have power to past that

Yep sounds like limiter. Get ah japanese ECU

i don't think its ah limiter cause for the first 3 gears it goes to about 8k rpms but the 4 just goes to about 4k rpm and no i don't use it like ah manual i just leave it in D3 or D4. But if it is the ecu where can i get ah proper ecu or ah gear box

jus buy a gearbox for about 9k for ur b16 and u would enjoy driving ur b16 alot more....trust meh...

pm kes_vtec he should link u up

Ammm ok so whats the problem.. Thats how it supposed to work..Thats how all honda transmissions work. Fourth gear is not the " sport " gear, it's 3rd or D3 in your case..

4th is what they call in NISSAN terms overdrive, It's a cruising gear.It was not designed for you to run out the speedo with.

... But amm yuh need to stop driving the car like a manual eh.. Trust me you ent gonna like the price of a clutch kit for your Transmission.

Go easy on D3

Or yuh could jus buy a Gearbox... Ahhhhh did i jus say that

you are not running out of 'rpm' meng... you are running into a speed cut that does not allow you to pass a particular speed in KPH or MPH. That fact that you can't go past 4k in the top gear is because the ecu is not letting the car create enough power to get past 180k.

I remember the first time I hit a speed cut with my sohc 5 spd.... same deal... around 5000rpm in 5th gear, clipping 120mph.... I hit a brick wall... no more power... and the Grand Prix just sailed on by...

Yuh could source one for my car ?

ah see like is yuh first post, like yuh now get the car to seeing you ain't know how yuh car does wuk. Relax a lil bit, then look to piggy back yuh speed limiter. Good move in upgrading yuh brakes. I yet to do this. And yuh see what them fellas saying, try and listen to then, stop yuh it as if yuh had a tranny, unless yuh rich. In that case fix up.

ah taking all ah alyuh advice and ah could drive and i didn't just get the car ah had it two years now, but ah just want it to work to the best of its ability . i living in bago and it just have some men up hewre that just feel that lancer and nissan in the sheit so ah does just want to show them that when it comes to n/a honda is king. but what i feel i might do is just leave this car as is and see if ah could put my hands on ah type r anybody know of anybody that have one to sell or ah manual 99-00 sir

Type-r is de boss... yuh will spend a fortune to get a SiR up to Type-R spec, but the SiR is still a damn nice car

fuh real the guy that own kc confectionary when he was selling his i got ah drie in it it was mad but somebody had already secured the sale but al looking for one like it again

but anybody have the newer ones the ep3 model in trini

If you want something that new I suggest you go with the type-r integra, and go for the models after 2003, thats the facelift with the suspension that doh kill yuh everytime yuh hit ah pothole... yuh watching 120k there though
