clutch not engaging PLEASE HELP

By 95LX_just_in
- Sat Jan 24, 2015 8:58 pm #351286 So my clutch is slipping or something really bad..to take off I push the clutch pedal in and like wiggle it in to third then it will slide into first.. Wont go in otherwise..when I put it in reverse it instantly starts grinding like hell and it burns oil like hell so I just need a new motor and tranny. How much does a d-series replacement cost? And do I need another ecu if I'm going from a non VTEC d16z6 to a VTEC z6.. Or maybe y8 which is better? Thanks

youll have to shop around for a drop in replacement drivetrain. there is no set price.

check on Craigslist in all the local cities and as far as you are willing to travel

Probably that :thumb:

Or he got a d16z6 that someone actually swapped a non vtec head onto, which would suck.

that could be.

thats almost as bad as these "mini me" civics i see on craigslist from time to time... like an EF hatchback with a dual point injection with a VTEC head on some old b8 block or some shit. thats "a legit jdm minime build"
