Y21's are the most common with the B16 we all have on here...

Rebuild yours... Either a used one that will crap out on you later, or rebuld it for some money and have alot more fun!

if you dont know and cant figure out how to find out what kind of tranny it is, i would recommend not even attempting rebuilding it.

the tranny code is a sticker on ther front right by where you can read the engine code on the block.
tell us two things:
what letters/numbers are there
is the sticker gold, or white with a barcode

we will go from there.

You SHOULD have a Y21 if it is a plain Jane, run of the mill B16A or B16A2... Mine personally has a Y21 sticker in white like Steve mentioned above.

according to the sig it's in a 91 CRX, so if it's a cable tranny, there are a few options. the sticker color and bar code will tell you what year the tranny is (90-91 or 92-93) and the code will tell you which tranny it is, only certain ones are really totally compatible with the 94+ (hydro) transmissions
