My transmission is officially toasted. Pops out of every gear, Grinds through every gear, the clutch is gone and the throw out AND pilot bearings are toasted.

I know literally nothing about Honda's, I have a 1988 EF Civic Hatchback, but it has a 1997 D16Y7 in it. Originially it had the 1997 4 speed tranny in it, but I swapped in a 5 speed out of an 88 CRX. So I guess I can use transmissions from either body style? All I know is that it needs to bolt up to my engine, and it needs to be 5 speed. I have cash, I have parts, I have all kinds of stuff. Let me know what you got, and what you're looking for. Thanks!

 

I got a 96 civic ex tranny. Perfect driving condition. No grinds. I don't have a clutch for it. 75 takes it. I live in NN. Let me know if u want it. Oh yeah, tranny has 110k miles on it. Took motor and tran out of car to put b series n it

 

PMed!

 

you can only use 88-91 civic transmissions, unless you have the hasport cable-hydro conversion kit

 

?

Then how did I have a 97 tranny in the car?

 

it couldnt have a 97 trans in it, if it was a 88-91 its a cable opperated trany and 92-up is hydrolic.

 

....

Now I are confused... Do the different trannys for the 88-91 or whatever have different splines? When I switched from the 4 speed to the 5 speed, I had to get a new clutch cause there was 1 fewer spline in the new tranny... or maybe the other way around...

 

Look at ur tranny does it have a cable, or a hydrotube goin to it in the front. Look between the tranny and radiator. Let me know what u find. Ur car should have a cable but somebody possibly could have converted it.

 

No it's def. got a cable, I know that for sure. So NONE of the EG civics came with cable clutches?

 

They stopped using cable trannies in 1991. 1992 and on have hydro
