driveshaft issue

malaysia_boy · Nov 1st, 2003, 09:45 PM

I'm goin to transplant a GA16DS into my B11...

however, there's a issue arising....i don't know whether the E-series gearbox driveshaft can fix into a GA gearbox or not?

anyone encounter this before?

or can a CA series driveshaft fit into a GA gearbox?

what gearbox does each car have? there should be a number on the ID tag under the hood... they'll be either RS5F30A or RS5F31A (5-speed), or RN4F30A or RN4F31A (4-speed). if they both match the 30A or 31A part, you win. they'll fit fine. if not, there may be some issues. check here

and do some searching.

there should be an aluminum tag riveted to the firewall somwhere under the hood (on the cowl/wiper housing on the B11). should have engine type, paint code trans typem etc.
