Default S20 92-95 EX/Si or P20 96-00 EX Tranny?

i have a choice of either tranny's.. the s20 came out of a 94 si with 65k and the p20 is unknown. which of the two would be a better choice? i'm doing a jdm d15b swap in my 92 civic CX and will eventually boost.

both trannys are pretty much identical, the only difference i believe is that the shift linkage on the p20 is stronger compared to the s20. i would just see which tranny was in better condition and choose that one, since both are pretty much the same minus the linkage

It's not the linkage it's the shift forks. The Y8 96-00 EX tranny's had steel shift forks while the 92-95 EX/Si tranny's had aluminum shift forks. Steel is stronger, so a lot of people recommend them.

Go for the S20 since you actually know the condition and mileage. I woulnd't want to touch a transmission that you don't know where its been.

I thought the 92-95 EX/Si's had steal forks and the DX/LX had aluminum.

Nope, all 92-95 are aluminum.
