my si transmission is about to take a **** as its making quite a bit of noise in high rpms, so i have this dx transmission in my backyard. Should i just go ahead and swap it ? i mean i want power and all, but since the dx is sitting there, i might as well right? or should i get a job and save for another si transmission. I still want decent power tho .
my question is , how much whould it effect my time in the 1/4th mile?

 

aite fool ... this wat u do .

put in ur dx if ur si if ****** up.
and then go find a damn job cuz.
and u know damn well i dont know how its gon effect ur qp time hah

 

if i remember correctly the dx and si tranny are the same except for the final drive

just get a si one and you be good

they are different, final drive affects every gear.

 

put the Si final drive into the DX transmission and you will have Si transmission

 

but mabe its the final drive thats messed up, cause like i get this wierd whinning sound at high rpms in every gear. should i replace the tranny oil with a more thicker oil?

 

my **** whined before, didn't cause any problems. My problems started when it would start popping out of gear.

 

try some 0w30 mobil1 synthetic, sounds like one of your bearings in the tranny going bad, or it's just dry, have you checked the oil, you should be able to use the bearings out of the dx tranny. If you have tried the oil thing and that did not work, replace that tranny quick. Otherwise it is going to scatter.
