the 4th gen civic needed a cable tranny, the 5th gen uses a hydraulic tranny, so if your car is a 92 or newer than u would need a hydro tranny

it's a pain in the ***... that swap.. .you need to get a hydro tranny or you can get a cable and spend 350 for the kit to make it into hydro, so basically you spend about 800 for hydro and 600 for cable+350 for the kit. Only plus is that the cable kit comes with an urathane mounts which I felt was worth the cash.

Yes, just get a GSR hydro, a B16 hydro, or a Type R hydro transmission. Any b series hydro tranny will work with your car fine. For a b16 though, I'd try and find a b16 or Type R tranny.
I think I said tranny like 11 times.
