hey im about to get a 5spd swap from a cx for my dx, my quesion is are the axles the same or do i need to use to cx axles?

thanks

 

you can reuse the axles

 

ok thanks.

 

one more thing should i use the cx tranny or should i shell out extra cash and get an ex tranny?

 

D16Y8 (96-00 EX) tranny is the best
should cost around $150-$200

unless you want better gas mileage, stay with the CX tranny.

 

i'm planning on doing a mini mini swap soon, will the cx tranny keep up?

It will, but the gears will be very very long. Just go with the Ex/Si tranny and you will be a lot better off down the road. Take it from me i have a mini-me and i have a dx tranny and even those gears are longer than hell. I might be getting an Ex/Si tranny soon, but its really your call.

 

thanks alot guys, i guess i'll just buy the ex tranny and put it in one time. also is the clutch and pressure plate different?

 

No you can use your same clutch and flywheel....all d series stuff is the same as far as thats concerned.
