Drive by wire is for the engine not the transmission, there is no cable going to the throttle from the gas pedal instead they put a pedal position possition sensor (potentiometer) and the ECU tells the throttle when to open. the transmission uses a cable linkage instead of mecahnical like used in civics years 1988-2001.
