If it has a PR3 ECU, then there will be a red LED on the ECU case that blinks out codes. With the key turned to position II (ON), pull up the carpet in the passenger side footwell and check the blinks.

^ lol.

Well b16 do have short gearing yes. You buy the shifter bushings for a 90-93 integra.

Also the tranny wining might indicate low trans fluid or input shaft bearing is going bad.

You can have a b16a2 which was orginally obd2 as obd0 just by changing the dizzy and the ECU.

PR3 is an OBD0 ECU.

Carefull, the PR3 comes in both obdO and OBDI designations!!

Pop the hood, look at the engine....does the wire harness have grey or white plugs coming off of it??

Next, how many o2 sensors? one or two?

Those two factors are great ways to identify which obd the car is setup with
