First off, there is a different between a normal eg tranny and a vx tranny correct? Different gera drives i believe.

So my main question, how can I identify that a transmission is really a VX transmission?

Thank you for your help.

 

yeah there is a BIG difference. the VX transmissions gering is SUUUUPER long. made for better fuel economy

i believe those transmissions top out at around 180 miles per hour.
so if ur 1st gear can be held to around 60mph, u have a VX transmission
:D

 

cx/vx tranny are tha same gear ratio there's stamped #'s on the tranny like P20/A000
same with dx/lx but with slight different gear ratio.
si/ex stamped would be P20/B000.

 

cx/vx tranny: P20/A000

does anyone know what the correct transmission stamp is for the vx?

edit: im putting a vx engine in my full jdm 1989 white hf crx. ill be looking at 65+ mpg probably. ive seen some guys get 75+ when the car hollowed out lol.

Acutally yes i did, never understood why he put it in a 90 dx, should have gotten a 88-89 hf lol. its like 200 lbs difference.

 

180! for reals ?! I didn't know normal Civic's can go that fast LoL

 

The A000 will tell you its a small bearing transmission, thats about all. It could end up being a CX/VX or a DX/LX tranny though, you really have to pull one apart and start counting teeth. Why do you want to run a VX tranny anyway? its infintely easier to run a cable tranny from a civic or CR-X.

 

Mpg, that's why

 

HF tranny should be pretty close as far as gear ratios go.

 

nope, 5th and final drive is better in a vx tranny ><

 

oh crap. didnt know u were in SEARCH of a VX trans lol. anyway good luck dude ignore my first post haha
