Default Transmission Missing All Gears Except 2nd A Sensor?????

I recently bought a 89 Acura Integra, cheap steal 500 bucks clean everything works pioneer deck, power everything, fog lights. Awesome deal sounds great with my alpine 12 and 800watt xplod amp. Catch. All of the gears in the transmission are out including reverse except 2nd. And the guy offered me a tranny for 300.


I read on honda/acura forum that when the VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor) Goes out all the gears go out except 2nd. A safety pracaution for the transmisson, is this true?

Yeah, really what was the point of listing that? I'm putting my car stereo in all my posts now, even if they're not about my car.
