Re:How do I tell the difference between a DX&Si tranny?
UPDATE: The guy swears up and down he pulled this tranny out of a VTEC Del Sol. Either the owner of the Sol did a mad crazy tite swap to a DX tranny y0, or that site is wrong. I can't see what my DX tranny says, but the new one says it is a DX with the same shitty *** gears I already have. I guess I am going to find out the hard way.

Re:How do I tell the difference between a DX&Si tranny?
Yeah, may gay *** tranny does 90+ in 3rd. 
When it was N/A it took like 30 minutes to reach the top of 3rd. I thought my motor was going to blow holding it for that long. 
About the other tranny, it doesn't say PL3, it says P20 and right below it in the same circle it says A000. Does that mean anything?

Re:How do I tell the difference between a DX&Si tranny?
OK, I have a 4th gen std... with enuff mods to be fun...
When I bought it, I got it from some dudes who were cool enough to tell me about the car... They said " yeah it had a 4 spd, but we didn't like a 4 spd on our lot, so we threw in a 5 spd." I was like cool, and they told me it was a LX tranny. Now I went to the Junkyard and picked up an "Si" tranny from the dude and it pulls the same as what I had. Fuel cut at like 75 in 3rd. I've got to check the numbers tomorrow, and figure out what's up, cuz either I had an Si tranny or I got a Dx tranny, and either way, they are both bad, so I need to go back and get another one... sucks
What speeds do your gears top at?
mine = 1st - ~35 2nd ~55 3rd ~75 4th 105+ (4 tickets haven't let me see above that yet..) 5th ~1xx?

Re:How do I tell the difference between a DX&Si tranny?
According to my 91 si owners manual the maximum speed for 3rd gear in an si is 75, a dx is 90, and the hf is top speed. as for the a000, 3000, and booo dilema...
in 88-91 a000 is dx, a100 is hf, and 3000 is the si tranny. In a 92-95 a000 is dx/lx and the b000 is an si/ex tranny. all 88-91 have L3 on the case, and 92-95 trannies will have p20 or s20 on them.
