My engine is fine so dont give me advice on swapping to another engine to get a better tranny please.

what is the best tranny for a Dblock

My orig tranny is dying and I plan to buy a junk one and rebuild it now while I can still drive to get parts. then I will swap the new one in.

so what is the best tranny for me to grab for this

 

An Si one would probably be the best overall choice. Should be much easier to find than a ZC tranny and I'm guessing that you don't want to go through the hassle of converting to hydraulic.

 

Si w/ zc 3-4

 

I dont want hydro you're right.

I drive long distances alot so I want to have the long top

I want to go LSD as well if possible

since I am planning to open it up and replace stuff the option of custom mixes is available too

so I suppose the best question is

what is the best LSD capable tranny to rebuild for a D-block in a daily driver?

 

You could get a Quaife and put it in a Si or ZC tranny, along with replacing the synchros, bearings, and seals and have a pretty durable tranny. Or if you are on a budget, you could go with an OBX LSD. I believe there are ZC trannys with LSD's too, but they are kinda rare.

 

Si with the HF fifth gear, quaife LSD....../thread.

 

now that would not be bad a dx tranny is fine or si and the hf 5th gear would be nice. FOr more fuel effficent ride.

 

I did the si tranny swap in my 90 LX and i love it other than at 70mph i am at about 3500rpm

Well, you could do better with more OEM parts...

DOHC ZC 3rd & 4th and JDM Integra ZXi Final of 4.437 and mate all that with the LSD of your choice.

For the newb's:
DX, Si and Teg ZXi all have the same gearing 1-5. Only differences are Final Drives which make a hell of a difference. (3.88, 4.25, and 4.4375 respectively)
