wrong...there was a diagram that nikita had to show what to do, let me find it...

 

80 Mph @ 4,000 RPM if i remember correctly.

 

very short gearing, 80 miles is around 4500 rpm I think, tranny is awesome, I wish they had this tranny in the 92-95 civic.

 

mark both input shaft and diff.
(while in 1st gear)
spin input shaft 10 times exactly
providing Diff was marked at 12 o'clock, after 10 rotations it will be:
1) just-just before 9 = SI
2) just-just after 9 = DX
3) abit after 12 = HF

 

so then wat would be the best tranny for my d16a6? as in good ratio cuz i have a dx one and i just slapped it on cuz i wanted the car running ,and needed to go to work soo.........wat u guys think?

Basically can someone give me the exact mph/rpms for an Si tranny? and the year car you have?

If you don't know and you have an Si tranny go take a test drive

Thanks,

3,000 RPM exactly at 60 MPH I promise!

This is correct. 60-62 MPH at 3,000 RPM in 5th gear.

Hmm, you guys sure thats the best way to figure out? I'm like 100% possitive my 'DX' car does that unless perhaps I got a Si tranny?

 

I'm surprised no one has suggested going here to settle this debate:

At best this tranny is 12 years old with +100k mileage. And a moajority of those years could've been with some pimply faced teen wanking on the shifter very irresponsibly. Especially if it's a Si.
Best to exercise caution when buying used transmissions. Test it in a car before you buy whenever possible.
