Transmission in hand at this time is a 4.08 final drive .701 5th gear LX sedan tranny. I can find a 92-95 CX/VX tranny easily though that has a 3.25 FD and is much better for pretty cheap, many people change them out.
I won't do an automatic of any kind sorry. I like shifting and also just don't believe that converting mech motion to fluid motion and back again is the efficent way to do things. A properly geared manual will always give better results imo.
Also honda's CVT requires a myriad of wiring and weighs over 200#'s compared to the 75#'s of the manual tranny. My spare D15B-VTEC has one still on it it huge!
