Is the 5-speed tranny out of an 03' RSX-S similar or identical to the tranny in an 06' Si?

 

Si has a 6-Speed.

 

I thought all K series motors had 6s

(edit: manual k series)

 

the rsx-s and 06-07 si's have 6 speeds. the 02-05 civic si's and base model rsx had 5 speed trannies. im pretty sure the type s and si trannies are interchangable, but the si will be more expensive due to the lsd.

ok, the tranny in question is an 03' type-s so i believe it is a 6-speed, thanks for the info.

the 03's is a 6-speed tranny. Are you planning to do a converision to cable (RSX) from eletricic (Si)?

 

I didnt think the Type S had LSD.

 

Guy's I believe the engine mounts are quite different.

The RSX-S Tranny is a 6 speed, as is the 06 Si Tranny
The RSX-S Tranny does not have LSD. 06 Si Tranny does.
The RSX-S Tranny has a different 6th gear.
The RSX-S Tranny has a different final drive.

As far as mounting, I have no idea.

What are you talking about? If you're talking about DBW, that has nothing to do with the trannys.

element = 5 speed
02-05 si = 5speed

etc etc

 

i have a K20 im swapping into a crx, and im using an 03 type S tranny. My original post was incorrect. i meant to say RSX-S 6-speed and 06 Si tranny. Was just wonderin how comparable they were. think i confused everyone with that first post. i appreciate all the input. thanks!!

 

Actually the SI and RSX-S have the same final drive. 6th gear in the SI's are taller than the RSX-S for more relaxed highway cruising and better fuel economy

Actually, you are incorrect. The 02-04 RSX-S has a different 6th gear and different final drive than the 06 Si. The original poster was asking about an 03 RSX-S. The 05-06 RSX-S does have the same gearing (including final drive) as the 06 Si (6th is the only difference)


You were close, because all K series 6-speed trannies other than the 02-04 rsx-s have same 4.764 FD.

 

my mistake..yes I was referring to the 05-06. because when they released the SI that's the model RSX it was compared too. u learn something new everyday

 

thanks again for the input. one more question. K24/K20 hybrid: will a K20 head bolt directly ont a K24 block or will i have valve clearance issues?
