Alright tommorow I am putting in my b16a with lsd in my 90 crx si and I dont know what this silver box thing is on the back of the transmission.



Another thing is I can't find where to plug in the speedo cable. If anybody can help me with this that would be awesome

 

what tranny is that

i cant tell for shure, but i think thats a Electronic VSS(Speed Sensor)

if thats what it is you will need to take it out and get a Cable VSS and plug you speedo cable into it

or get a different Gauge cluster and Wire up the Electronic VSS

 

The transmission is a y1 with lsd. I thought that this transmission had the gear driven speedo

 

Can somebody please confirm if this is an electric vss?

 

yes it is

 

jdm 89-91 SiR had electronic speedo

 

yes that is an electric speedo. If you want ot swap in a cluster from a newer integra or civic 92 and up then that speeedo will work. If you are going to use your stock crx custer then you need to get a cable speedo from any88-91 civic/crx.

good excuse to get the EF SIR cluster

 

Alright thanks guys, lets say I get an Sir cluster, will it be a direct swap into my crx? otherwise I guess ill just swap in a cable speedo. thanks for the help

 

well you're gonna need to run the wire from the this receptacle to the SiR gauge cluster, as i'm sure your USDM EF gauge cluster isnt electronic vss ready..

 

replacing the VSS is much easier. plus its fun to burry the needle on the stock ef gauge!..lol

the VSS from your stock SI tranny will fit.. just swap them..

 

its easier to just put your d series vss in.

 

I just took the top part of the electric vss off. this will allow you to use you exisiting cable. Keep the top part in case you ever want to wire in the sir cluster.

I used mine this way for 2 years without any trouble.

i think there are more than one speed sensor.. but this one he has i dont think it is possible, i just did a swap last month (b16a into civic with y1 tranny) and it had the same VSS as this guy, but it wasnt possible to use the cable..
