ok, i have my honda backround in crx's, but i had a baby boy and can't really drive the rex any more. i just bought a 94 hatch cx shell and i am going to swap my d16z6 from the rex to the hatch, but i am going to need a tranny, i've got a line on a dohc zc tranny for cheap and 90-93 axles for near free, i have a cable si tranny so i could do the zc tranny with si final drive and fifth gear, i dont have a hydro trans nor do i have some where to get one right now for my budget, i like the way the cable trannys feel, why are hydro trannys better any way

i'd just use a hydro tranny from a z6 and call it a day. for the price your gonna have to pay for the hydro to cable conv from hasport or place racing, you can buy a stock z6 tranny most times. theyre dirt cheap really. i picked mine up on my old ride for about 200.

the DOHC ZC tranny won't bolt up to a SOHC motor. it will just be easier if you got a hydro tranny (Z6/Y8 tranny). they're about $150-$200.

sorry i guess i should have been more specific 88-91 jdm dohc zc tranny, yes this tranny will bolt up to single cams

I would seriosly look into a hydro tranny. If you can't find a good EX/SI tranny for cheap then you will defently find a DX one or in the worst case a CX one. The reason why hydro trannies are better is because it's easier to push in the clutch, especailly if you got a stronger pressure plate then stock, and it's easier to control it.

4g4drb17

ok i know hydro's exist, i have been looking around for one locally and i have found some in other states i could ship here but i want to explore this option i like the way cables feel they give you more feedback through the pedal i don't find it hard in my crx, this is what i want to do not what i have to do

you can design some sort of the hydrolic to cable adapter. You still use the slave cylinder but only it operates the cable. Search I seen a post of this sort a few days back for b16a1 into EG. Copy of HASPORT only for a d.

i would rather use the zc tranny for the equal length axles to reduce torque steer, and to be able to use 4.437 final drive from a jdm sohc teg zxi/rxi, and cause i could get one cheap

ABK

yeah it's cable right so read above and you can try to make a kit for yourself.

Deemeetree

I know you want to keep your able tranny because the way it feels. But have you considered selling your tranny and maybe putting in a few dollars more to make things easier and just get a hydraulic tranny to bolt right up?
