If i were to replace the automatic transmission on my crx would an obd1 civic tranny work? the shift linkages are the same???? maybe??? thanks

Transmissions are not OBD-anything. That's purely electronics.

That said, you probably mean if you can use a newer type transmission.
You can -but- the newer ones are hydraulically actuated. This means you would need to buy a conversion kit for this.

I would stick with a regular transmission.

Well he said it's auto, so I'm assuming he's replacing it with another automatic. I'm sure it would bolt up, but as for the linkage I just don't know.

sorry for the delay, but i noticed that there are two silenoids (spelling sorry) for the torque converter on top of the 92-95 tranny adn only one for the 88-91 tranny. i guess i answered my own question. it seems there is a seperate TCU for this type of tranny. That is what I finally got out of my local honda shop. Guess its a no go for it now. thanks for your help guys

As long as the transmission came from a d series motor, in theory you could use it and it would bolt up.
