gsr engine/ls tranny
I am thinking of swapping a c1 into my rs and was wondering if anyone is running one with an ls tranny? How is the acceleration with the wider gears? Is it close enough to just save the money and not get the gsr tranny too?

The "LS" trans is simply not geared short enough to keep the B18C series of engines in the high revs, where they make the most power, so they'll feel a bit more sluggish.
been there done that
