there is no difference between the Si trans and the DX trans except for the final drive everything will bolt right up

You will need to buy the SI clutch as I believe the spline count on the DX and SI are different. The axles will fit no problem. Deffinately do the swap! I had a DX transmission on my '88 DX HB w/ZC and when I switched to the SI box it made a hugh difference in acceleration and top end throttle response.

SI and DX clutches are the same...it is the model year as to where the clutch changes. 88, 89, 90-91 clutches are different.

hes right
88 has 21 spindle count
89-91 has a 20 spindle count
the 90-91 are like 2mm larger clutch surface than the 88-89
