easy as pie straight drop in seeing how you have a vx everthing for vtec is there so just unhooke verything then hook her back up.....look into gettting a si tranny or a jdm lsd tranny cause your vx tran will have crap gas saver gearing and get the right ecu aswell cause your ecu will have weak spark and fuel trims causing low HP...

ya try and find a ncie zc lsd tranny, hard to come by but ud b happy with it cept on the hwy, i had one and loved it altho it revved so high on the hwy cuzz of the gearing.

i got a tranny with it, its super complete, im not too sure what kind of tranny tho

punkindrublic

if you got the zc tranny then its all good even if its not lsd it'll still have some nice gears... might suck on the highway though

Could always do a tranny swap.
Take out the final gear ration from your VX and swap it into the tranny you're gonna put in now.

You cant swap gears in the trannys because the diff bearings are a different diamiter, they wont fit. The outer casings are the same but they are different inside.

hey.... my buddy is rebuilding one too, we are gonna swap it soon..... i thought i remember hearing you need a few 88 integra parts like cap and rotor and stuff of that sort... is that true? or do you just use your stock d16 parts from the other motor?

imported_kIeRaN

nope wasnt me, okay im all done now, i just dont know which ones are vetc wires, I see there is one green conector to the top left side of the valve cover, it has 2 cut wires coming from it
