pl3/9000 zc transmission???
 

I have a 91 civic si, I think it's from Canada. I didnt even know till now it had a pl3/9000 transmission in it there it has no intermediat shaft. I put a clutch in it and also some cheep axils from abc autoparts like a year ago everything fit but i had to return the long axil once for a different size. How come i dont have an intermediat shaft? How can i tell if this is a hybrid transmission with zc and si gears?

cdn EF si cars were nothing more than a D16A6 with a typical SI trans, unless someone swapped in a ZC trans.

If its an A6, it wont have the mount holes on the A6 block to mount the jack shaft.

someone may want to confirm this. im going strictly by memory.

CDN d16a6 Civic/Crx Si did NOT have an i-shaft. There are few difference mechanically to the USDM versions.

dose that include the engine my block only says zc on it it dose not read d16a6 my ef was manufactured in canada.id assume it is the same car though

so is a pl3/9000 stock for canadian si or do they come with pl3/3000 trannsmissions too?
im wondering if mine was swaped in.

Re: pl3/9000 zc transmission???
 

Canadian SI and US SI are the same.Only difference is we never had door mounted seat belts,CDN cars after 90 or 91 had DRL's and speedo is in KMH not MPH.You probably have a SOHC ZC a common swap to replace a beat D16A6 as they are identical other than camshafts.

ALL 90-91 Ciivic HB's in North America came from Canada.

PL3/3000
/B000
/6000
/9000


all 40mm diff cases.

Re: pl3/9000 zc transmission???
 

I have the Canadian si with seatbelts in doors. does the pl3/9000 in there have the same final drive and gears as a regular zc transmission? How can i tell?

Re: pl3/9000 zc transmission???
 

Was your car made in Canada or is it a Canadian model?

Re: pl3/9000 zc transmission???
 

DOHC ZC trannys are easy to tell, normal SOHC axles don't fit.

If normal SOHC axles fit, and it is a B000/3000/6000/9000 casting, you have a CRX Si tranny
