Swapping d series tranny.. I have some questions
So I have a 95 civic lx with a d16z6 and 97ex tranny the syncros are worn out and the input shaft bearing is getting really noisy...
So I found a tranny off a y8 engine it's a hydro s40 factory lsd tranny (Or so the seller says)
Just curious since I am new to this stuff, will there be any problems mating this tranny with my z6?
Shift linkage isn't gonna need to be changed or anything?
Any tips on this would be helpful, I don't wanna buy a tranny I can't use..

The Y8 trans doesn't have a LSD. Seller is either uninformed or lying.

The S40 has steel shift forks while the original 92-95 S20 trannies have aluminum shift forks.
Then the other half which is what seems to be everyones focus is the value part of the tranny itself and the seller.
Mixed bag this one is....

OP username is weird, young wisdom? Truthfully there is no way to tell if the tranny is good or not until you take it apart. I doubt the seller is going to take it apart and show you how the gears and synchros looks. Last but not least ask the seller for pictures to confirm the lsd. How us are we going to tell you if has it or not?
