word.

 

why?!

 

it's a front wheel drive

 

AFAIK it's only available in japan and fits in japan only come with auto transmissions. Also, think about how slow it would be with the little 1.5l with even littler torque having to move that awd transmission. The power loss would be too great. Anyways, civics do just fine being fwd.

Nope.. total bs
Fits in Japan also come in manual

 

Unless hes talking about the lower models with the 1.3l engine which came in the CVT automatic.

 

my bad the fit only came with automatics in around 2003

"Some technical details for those who might not know them. The Spoon Race Fit is based on the original 'first generation' JDM Honda Fit 1.5T. Spoon developed its Race Fit a few months before its first MMC (minor model change) for Japan in October 2003 so the car is still using drum brakes for the rear. Also at that time, the Fit 1.5T comes with only a CVT-7 gearbox option.

Stock, the Fit 1.5T introduced the L15A VTEC which by now should be quite well known. It is 1.5l 16V SOHC VTEC in configuration, generating a max power of 110ps at 5,800rpm (JDM version) and red-lining at around 6300rpm. As noted, the car comes with only the MMT-S Multimatic gearbox (known as the CVT-7 outside of Japan) and also introduced the then new steering wheel actuated manual sequential shift option. The latest versions now comes with a rear disc brake option, no doubt catering for the preference enthusiasts has for full front & rear disc brakes as well as a 5MT gearbox option."

I thought there were no manual fits there because I've read in an article that spoon had to import a 5 speed m/t for their race car.
