I have a dx tranny right now :[ should I just get a 88-91 crx/civic Si tranny? Or is there a better option? Any trannys in JDM land come with stock LSD or anything fancy like that? Better gear ratio's for 5th gear lol, so it's not 4500 rpm at 60mph (exageration lol)! thx H-T

 

Go with a 88-91 Si tranny. It is a good tranny, i just put one on my 88 civic with a D16z6, it was a nice improvement. From what ive heard its the best D series transmission you can buy.

 

Si tranny is ok. i just put in a Dohc zc tranny. feels great. a get a tad less mpg then the Si tranny in 5th gear. but having equal lenght axles made me 60 ft times so much better. depends what ur car is for. if its ur DD get the Si tranny.

 

The one, the only... Si wins for the D- Series!

 

I also have a dx tranny with my D15b and I can't stand it. I'm hoping to get my hands on a si or ex tranny soon. Also does anyone know if you can install the 92-95 si/ex gears in a cable case?

 

EX/ Si... Hydro or Cable!

 

Si Cable tranny does the trick for me, good gas milage in 5th gear.

 

cool dudes thx, interesting about the hydro tranny, but i've had a hydro tranny i don't mind cable i would rather have LSD first than hydro

really? in 5th gear with my Si tranny, its a 4k at 80mph for me...thats kinda high, but yeah i do get pretty good mpg

 

Anyone know if you can swap 92-95 si gears into a 88-91 dx case?

 

bump this is kinda what im wondering. i want to be cruising at like 2-3k rpm at 80mph cruise =]

ive heard you can swap the gears from an hf into an Si case....correct me if im wrong anyone? not all the gears....maybe the 5th gear? i couold have sworn someone here asked the same question a few months ago.

oh well id also like to know this

 

I put a 1988 civic hatch back 5spd tranny in my 1991 hatch std. very low rpm in fifth gear on highway. Car stays very low in rpm through whole tranny gears. You need to switch your flywheel,and clutch for it to work, tranny shaft has different number of splines than 1990 or 1991.

anybody know if you can put a dx or hf 5th into the si?? i got a spare si tranny, so would like to know before i try anything..... thanks.

 

I just want to know about the eg trans to ef trans because I know around here there are tons of them lying around.

 

people act like the DX and SI trannys have an ungodly difference in gearing...

3.88 vs 4.25 FD isnt that big of a deal...

no kidding, thats the only difference too, the rest of the tranny as far as gearing is identical

 

What exactly is the final drive, how does it work?

 

What do you want to use it for?

PM Mista Bone... her will get you going in the right direction.

 

I hardly ever see the interstate and would like something better for the track.

 

Try having my DA, running 65 at 4K with a B16.

 

hf 5th gear can be put in, i have on in my trans, also it is major improvement to use zc gears, shorter than si for 2-4 1st gear is prety much the same in all transmissions, use Si FD which is 4.25 or you can get aftermarket fd, i have a 4.72 or i know one company makes a 4.9, plus with the zc diff you can use the intermediate shaft and use equal length axles, no more tq steer.
