remove your vehicle speed sensor and add it thru there.

best way

 

which plug is that, the one in the big plug in the back facing down or the small one up front at the bottom with the long wire

 

it is a three wire connector (black). it is by the rear trans bracket. take the 10mm off holding the vss and turn the vss and it will come out. use that hole to fill the trans.

 

did you hook up your shift linkage correct

 

looking for some info on a ls swap in my 94 civic ex please need some help on what i need to get and do!!!!

 

start by pulling the motor

What info you looking for?

Axles: 94+ integra
Mounts: 94+ integra: rear bracket, and side (trans and a/c) motor mounts, reuse other civic mounts
Shaftlinkage: 94+integra, 99-00 SI

 

You better hope it's not some loose flywheel bolts, that's a pain in the ***, gotta take the tranny off again. Next time I'll use loc-tite.

 

im sure its not the flywheel bolts, i torque it to 90lbs. I dont believe I install the shift linkage wrong, just hit the pin in the hole and use the C clip and dust boot. unless there is some adjustment i dont know about. when i get a chance i will try to fill the tranny through the speed sensor hole u guys talked about.
BTW, Im using ACT streetlite with pro-clutch stage 2.

 

I'm not sure why everyone is telling you to fill the trans through the speedsensor, when you should really be filling it from the fill plug located on the passenger side.
There are 2 plugs, Lower is drain plug upper is fill/level indicator, the oil should be up to this hole, best way to get oil in it is with a flexible spout funnel or a funnel with a small rubber hose attached. This way your transmission cannot be overfilled.

 

Is your clutch bled properly? Does it go into gear with the car off?

instead of running a tube, wich is messy when it fills, you can just open the fill plug and still fill through the VSS hole.

and check the shift linkage, the transmission should shift, easily, even without fluid in it.
