Yours is exactly the kind of question for which I compiled this list/guide from a slew of reliable internet sources: http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...tml#post378478

And the answer is nonetheless still that you're looking for an HX, VX, CX, or 1996-2000 DX hatch. in order to get taller gearing. The 1992-1995 fifth generation VX and CX had the tallest of the recents. The 4th gen HF had the tallest period.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
