i believe the '90 crx had a cable actuated clutch while 92 and later civics have a hydraulic. theres a conversion kit out there but thats just too much work/money for a tranny thats 14years old, imo. just go to the www.thepartstrader.com and look for a y8 tranny(thats where I got a "98EX tranny for $150) if you need a new one. Do you EVEN need a new one?
you can also put a free ad on that site to sell your a6 engine/tranny.

yea, me my brother and my friend all got sci's they smooth out the idles pretty good, not a big power mod, but nice to have
I mounted the box right in front of the coolent resevoir, I made a custom bracket out of aluminum, i mounted my brothers (civic also) right in the middle of the firewall on top
my nitrous kit was in the way
