i bought a car off of ia from georgia boy its a 91 civic 4 dr it has been swaped to a d16a6 with a cable tranny the tranny was messed up when i bought it so i bought one out of a crx 1.5 atleast thats what i was told but anyway i tried for hours to put the tranny in and finaly gave up because it would not fit the bell housing looks to be the same but what i did figure out is the clutch that i got with the car is not wanting to go on the splines so what i need to know is if i buy another clutch disc will that fix my problem and what type of car do i need to buy it for year and type if anyone can help that would be great im trying to get it fixed so i can get it to the paintshop so it will be tready for nopi thanks.

if the tranny came out of a 88 year model civic,
I believe the splines were different than the 89-91 model civic
hope that helps any
make sure to send me pics of it when its painted,
are you going to piant it white again like you told me or another color?

im not sure what year it came out of but the shaft is bigger around than the one that came out of it that is why the new clutch wont fit but i need to know for sure what clutch disc i need to get before i buy one so i dont run into the same problem the tranny's look exactly the same but the shaft is just a tad bit bigger around and no im taking your advice and painting it black.

i understand that but my problem is i dont know what the tranny that i have came out of so i dont know what clutch disc to ask for. i have a new clutch kit for the old tranny and the shaft is to bigthe disc wont go on so what ever it is it has to have less splines the only thing i can think of is to take the tranny down to autozone and look until i find one that fits but i dont know if they will do that because it would meen opening several clutch disc so i dont know again if anyone knows of a place where i might can find out what the tranny came out of by the seriel # then please lmk thanks.
