I went to swap a d16a1 into my CRX last night and thought that the d16a6 tranny would bolt right up, all d-series trannies bolt to same generation d-series motors right? Wrong!

Anyhow, the back side bolt and bottom starter bolt holes did not line up at all, where there was supposed to be a hole in the motor there was webbing.

What tranny will bolt up to the d16a1? Integra only or are there other alternatives?

Sorry for the bad news but ONLY the 86-89 teg tranny or the hard to find equivalent 1g ZC tranny (NOT the 2g ZC tranny that you usually use for 88+ civic swaps) will work for it. btw who told you that a D16A1 from an 86-89 teg would swap into an 88+ civic??? You should pimp slap the hell outta that *friend*!

Thanks for the reply! I continued researching and saw that it won't even bolt in! Shitty deal! Ah well, I'll bolt it into my 86 civic racecar instead.

Either way, thanks. I will "pimpslap" that bitch. :D
