I started a new thread before I saw your build, oops!

I'm getting a '95 EX sedan for a 'VX Sedan' build project. I will be using HX wheels, too. I'm considering making a hybrid transmission using some combination of EX/DX/Si 1-4 gears to 'help' with city acceleration. My major desire for this project is to be a highway machine benefiting from the lean-burn engine as well as the VX 5th gear.

I also am going to make this a much improved handler for the twisty stuff, so looking forward to that.

What kind of highway mpg are you expecting (say at 65mph or less)?

Looking forward to more pics!
