EF8/9 Part numbers/Info/Owners Thread

The VSS is bolted into the top of the gearbox, from memory it's held in with two bolts. I had the same problems with my speedo. The only way to fix it is to replace the VSS, they cost $85 from hondworld in melbourne, I have a spare one that works that you can have for $50 plus postage. PM me

Only need to take out the one screw to pull out the VSS. And don't over tighten it when you do it up......it WILL crack

hello everybody
i was thinking of buying an original ef9 civic

Anyone know an Australian equivalent for the fuel tank sender with the low fuel light?
For example is there an Integra with the with the fuel light and similar tank sender?

I replaced my VSS with a later model one. The gearing is the same but the later model
has the plug integrated into the sensor, no wiring tail. I had to change the plug on the
loom (as I recall?).

Who's got a Y1 tranny in their EF8/9? I heard it's rare. Is this true?

**aznpsuazn** · 31-03-2006 01:39 PM

Would that be the LSD box for the ef's?

**SlobberGoat** · 31-03-2006 02:04 PM

qnx,
Y1 can be either LSD or non-LSD. Which one are you talking about?

**Dxs** · 31-03-2006 02:12 PM

i *think* Y1 is standard (which is what i have) and YS1 is the LSD version..

i would like confirmation though

I was told by this honda wrecker that the Y1 transmission is rare. By what he was saying he gave me the impression that he thought all y1's were LSD. But I s'pose the question is now; is the Y1 lsd rare and who's got one?

**SlobberGoat** · 31-03-2006 08:23 PM

Bah.
I've never heard a wrecker say
"Shit yeah mate. We got truck loads of these...."
(cause then they can't extort large sums of cash from you on the pretense that it's the only one in existance)

They always say
[sucking air through teeth]
"Yeah mate, these are pretty rare, but I'll sell you this one here for eleventy billion dollars." <as he points down to a clapped out D15B4>

Don't listen to the wreckers.

Where there is a will...
