Gearing for 4th gen transmissions?

[teevee247]

I was wondering if anyone had the gearing information for the different manual transmissions for the 4th gen civics... and also are they the same but with just different gearing (i.e. are they all equally tuff?)

dx and si ar eth esame except for thefinal drive, which is where the si has shorter gearing.

 

[Contender25]

si is the best of course..that beaCh is durAblE..lol

 

[Tom]

si is the best of course..that beaCh is durAblE..lol

well yes and no, the dx can put down more torque and better gas milage, while the si can reach a higher speed and btter starting launches.

 

[Contender25]

hmm dint know that..thanks for the info.

 

[Contender25]

you know my moms 89 dx seems a little more torquey in 1st then my si but i know my si can get UP so theres no way she could beat me..plus shes not serious enough when she races hers sometimes..lol or trys 2.

 

[Tom]

considering dual point versus multi, your right she can't get up to the speed like we can but she can still hang for a bit.

 

[Contender25]

yeah for a little bit...lol.

What if an Si had a DX transmission?

 

[Tom]

What if an Si had a DX transmission?

the si would have better gas milage, and be a bit possible to put down a bit more torque, but in the end it would be slow also.

 

[Viperlude69]

what if it had an std tranny...

 

[Tom]

then it would be super slow, but have really good gas milage.

oh...talk to ya later jspeczcturbo...gotta go....

 

[Tom]

oh...talk to ya later jspeczcturbo...gotta go....

yeppers later.

Well I have a DX transmission in my Si... and its quite a bit faster than any stock DX out there, i've tried against a few and i always pull alot on them... im sure its a bit slower than it could be... but its perfectly acceptable...

 

[Tom]

ofcourse it's faster then the dx's you pull on them because you have like 16 more hp and 2 extra injectors.

 

[teevee247]

How big is the difference in gearing though between the two? I still find it pulls nice and strong for only having 108hp... many cars with more power fall to me by 3rd gear... oh well... im getting better gas mileage and at the prices up here right now, thats a good thing.

 

[Viperlude69]

tell me about it...../\

Gas prices are at about an average of 2.17 a gallon around here...

 

[teevee247]

we're paying 99.9 cents a liter here for regular... supreme is 106.9 cents per liter... or in other words...
3.78$ a gallon for regular and 4.04$ a gallon for supreme... thats in canadian dollars... and in us dollars $2.71 USD per gallon for regular and $2.90 USD per gallong for supreme

 

[Contender25]

93 over here is like 1.70...1.80 somethin i think? close to 2$ a gallon...but its rAw....
