Default Transmission ACquisition

Just recieved my used Y-80 tranny via fed-ex. I was gonna tear it down this past weekend but I broke the key for my lug nuts.:angry: I have to wait until the manufacturer ships me a new key. I hope to get some pics up. I'll keep you posted...By the way, the old tranny was an S4. I heard that that trans was from a Civic SI. Could that be true?

Excellent info:hi5:! Does that mean I downgraded in terms of performance? Those gear ratios are confusing to me.:thinking:

higher numbers mean faster acceleration through each gear. if you did indeed have an s4c before and went to a y80, that would be a slight downgrade.

That sucks. I hope it's not too noticeable. I'll be happy just to get my integra back on the road. Thanks for your help. I hope to remember my camera for the install...

Oh well, I want to drive the damn thing already. It's been over a month. I just want to be faster than my cousin. He's got a 92 with a 96 b18b1 motor with a cable tranny. He's talkin alot of shit now that mine is not on the road...
