hey, i am trying to purchase a tranny off of ebay. found one that says it is out of 94 civic. i emailed the guy asking if it was dx, lx, or ex and his response was this...

"it is out of a dx with a 1.6L hope this helps.
thanks"

is that even possible? i thought if it was a dx then it would be a 1.5L or if it is a 1.6L, shouldnt it be an EX? i'm not sure, can anyone shed some light on this for me?

 

email him again, asking if the motor was a 1.5L or 1.6L.

 

k, so i emailed him back to ask him exactly what kind of car it was, this time he said he thinks its an EX with the 1.6L engine. but, he's not sure. here's the number off the tranny he gave me: s20-1287115. anyone tell me what this means?

 

that # wont do anything for you he has to look on the side of the transmission, next to the drain plug it will have
P20/A000 is for DX/CX/VX
P20/B000 is for EX/Si

 

thanks, i will ask him...

 

It sounds like the motor from the 96-00 CX/DX/LX, the D16Y7. 106 hp, 103 trq

 

It will work regardless

 

ok, got a reply, it says p20 cf5. Does that mean anything? thanks again!

 

aren't the S20 trannys from the ex civics? correct me if i'm wrong. i searched on google for s20 trannys and they are only showing up for the vtec motors. lmk

i think that tranny is from the ex motor...

Bense, if you're out there, please help?!

 

USE THIS KNOWLEDGE TO YOUR BENIFIT!

In 1994 there WAS a Civic DX with a NON-VTEC D16 in it.. We ran into this problem when trying to find the correct T-belt and the D15 was a few teeth too short!

However, like it has been mentioned before, it will bolt up, the only differences would be gearing..

 

s20 means nothing but 92-95 trans


just hope that you don't get a cx/vx trans with the 3rd gear that will take you to infinity and beyond.

I don't believe it

 

hey bense, does that p20 cf5 mean anything? i know p20a000 is dx and p20b000 is ex but not sure of other. even googled with no result...

 

I sure hope that he's giving you a good deal on it.

 

(BENSE)

DOOD, I said the SAME EXACT CRAP until I was faced with it!

The only way you'll EVER believe me is if you actually run into it yourself.. It's total BS..

The belt for the D15 was about 4-5 teeth too short with the tensioner LOCKED while FULLY COMPRESSED.. we went through like 3-4 different part numbers and holy crap if there isn't this belt for the D16 that's about 4-5 teeth longer.. it fit perfectly..

Believe it or not.. I just tell it how it is..

 

Were the trannys in the 92-95 civics hydraulic?

yes, they were hydraulic.

 

Gadget, I'm not saying that you were wrong, I'm just saying that I doubt that HONDA put a d16 in a 94. It could have been a replacement d16a6 engine.

 

scottybfh, I got a ex trans for $200, dx trans for $150 I will be in charlotte on the 7th.

guaranteed no grinds.

Yeah, that seemed wierd to me too.. Perhaps you're correct about that.. But the belt itself, I'm positive about..

 

sorry Bense, had to get one yesterday from the yard. mine finally gave out. when i get the new put in, would you like the old one? not sure if i'll have it done by saturday, but can try and get it to ya somehow...
