Big progress is taking place. I took the engine out over the weekend and my friend who is a technician at Honda hooked me up with a timing belt, cam seal, crank seal, water pump, vtec solenoid gasket, valve cover and oil pan gasket. So I got all that in.

Now for the big stuff. I'll add pics later. My vx transmission was super noisy. So I took it apart and I took apart my old hx transmission and tried just swapping the vx 3.25 differential over into my hx case with all good bearings.. Well the diff bearings are different sizes. Sooo I swapped the ring gear aaand. Well it worked but my hx counter shaft gear was clashing with the diff. Soo, now I'm in the process of taking the main shaft and counter shafts from both transmissions and putting all of the good bearings onto the vx gears. It's my first time ever looking inside of a transmission but to be honest it's all pretty easy. Sorry if I sound like I'm speaking a different language.
