VX engine and Trans?
 
Hi All,

What is a realistic price to pay for a VX engine and transmission?

Also which Honda's will this engine and trans fit in with no mods to the shell

Thanks in advance,

Bill

I paid my transmission 400 CAN$ + taxes 3 years ago. It was a used one. I put 40k miles on it and still going well. It was overpriced probably. Still its the same transmission as a CX (92-95) so it is probably a CX...

Anyway, for the tranny you could find one for 200 US$

I've been looking for them as well and I find engines for $300-400 w/ $150-250 shipping, transmissions are in the $150 range, but shipping is another $75-100.

Total? Probably close to $600 if you get lucky, $800 if you don't.

there is an engine and tranny together for sale on craigslist in Minneapolis for $250 I paid $150 just for my vx tranny two years ago from a junk yard and felt it was a good price and because you didn't say where you are I guess we can assume that location is not an issue.

I guess I'm the exception to the rule, lol. I got my spare Z1 for free. Thank goodness for ricers that think this motor is worthless.

I got VX tranny and engine for $250 from Ebay a couple months ago - picked it up in MA. I got it for spare parts though, if you want a replacement engine to swap, ~$600 for JDM, shipped, sounds about right.

Hi Guys,

I'm in Minneapolis. What honda's will this engine and trans fit in? Years and Model?

Hey Bill, I'm near Minneapolis!

The VX engine and trans will drop straight into any 92-95 civic chassis. In fact I just helped a buddy drop a D15Z1 into his Del Sol last week. He's running a Chipped ECU though to make the swap easier.

The wiring for that swap is a little more work if you want to use the stock P07 and 5 wire O2. That is something that I could most likely help you out with when you get the chassis and drivetrain.

Hi Tom,

Thanks it would be greatly appreciated! I was just wondering if it would fit in another newer civic hatch with more options like AC, cruse, NO RUST!:D PM me your number and I will send you mine. I have a brand new 2+ car garage I just built in the hood.

I sold my other car about 3 months ago so the wife and I have been shearing one car a 98 subaru forester which only gets about 24 mpg hwy.

Yesterday, I finally fixed my 1990 toyota corolla gts. A very sporty car that gets good millage but I still have some work to do on it. I still would like to buy a civic VX.
