Sorry Daox...didn't mean to 'jack your thread!
CarloSW2, Daox is modding his tercel, I am modding my escort.
Hyundai's trans isn't getting modded until it is out of warranty.
I didn't see the update on that gear mod (the demise of the gear), thanks.
To answer your question...No, the ZX2 trans is different than the Sdn/Wgn Trans.
I did purchase a 'Pony/Fuel Saver' Trans at a yard but still have to tear it down and compare it to my trans.
