Ya, but you need to rig up a switch so VTEC can activate.

Sorry, didn't see you had the VFAC... that will make VTEC work...

As far as you getting a Z6 tranny, you will need to convert the tranny to cable or convert your hatchback to Hydraulic... the SI tranny is the best to use, cheap and easy.

He's right, the Z6 tranny will not fit into a 4g Civic/CRX.

There are 2 reasons why:
1 - The Z6 tranny's mounts are in slightly different locations v.s. the Si tranny mount locations.
2 - It's a hydro activated tranny, while the Si is a cable.

Reason #2 can be worked around. But reason #1 can't, unless you've got some good ideas for relocating the mounts.

Now even if you did fit the Z6 tranny inside your car - will the Z6 axles fit? I don't know.

Stick with the 89-91 Si tranny - it's lighter than the Z6 anyway, and I think it's geared a little bit better.

you can use the si trans. I myself sell and use the pm6 with the Zdyne program for sohc vtec. this has worked well and is real clean looking. i sell the ecu for program for 320.00 and need your core. facturing all the effort and price of a P28 it would come out to near the same. also chipped PM6's with activated switches can develop problems.

What are you trying to accomplish?

Damn bro, I have a friend with a mini me, with just I/H/E, AFC and he runs a 14.7 with the Y8 head... do you have any quarter mile slips you can post so we can see where your problem is.
