Take the cable input out of the d trans and put it in the b trans. Then put your cable into it. And bang cable driven vss. VSS on our cars is in the cluster.

Are you using a hydro tranny?

you have to get a mechanical vss for your tranny out of an integra with a cable tranny that's the only thing you can do

The VSS plugs into the tranny on top near the side mount and the cable from your firewall plugs into the vss. In my 90 and 91 CRXs w/ B16s I just took the stock VSS out of the stock tranny and removed the electric ones that came on my JDM B16 to just plug the stock vss into the JDM cable B series tranny.

have a B series cable tranny VSS...$50 shipped...

I'm sure you can find one here that's being sold for cheap too or did you try swapping the one from your D-series tranny?
