S and Si models had a standard 5-speed manual transmission, with 4-speed automatic optional.Only manual shift was available in the high-performance VTEC edition.

A 1.5-liter 4-cylinder engine powered the base S model, while the sportier Si carried a 1.6-liter 125-horsepower four with variable valve timing. Five-speed manual and optional 4-speed automatic transmissions were available

for del sol's, the si had an automatic available.

btw, i used to have an automatic. did the usual mods (i/h/e) to the engine and barely got any faster than stock h: had nitrous, but sold the car before i can actually fill the bottle to use it. :doh: but it handled great because of the suspension mods.

pics below, just for memories. h:

keep your car stock and save up to sell it for a manual if you want to go any faster.

and you're not getting the maximum effectiveness for any of your bolt-ons putting the power to the ground through an automatic.
