im thinking about buying a 93 hatch..but the tranny is blown..hes asking 3
im wondering how much would it cost me to replace the tranny..i need something to drive for now if i get it...im pretty mechanically sound or is replacing the tranny extremely difficult
thanks in advance guys

 

about $100-150 for a used tranny, some give them away!

Tranny swaps are easy, takes me less than 3 hours, and I don't have a frame lift!

That would also give you the opportunity to replace the DX tranny with one from a 92-95 Civic Si/EX or a Del Sol Si. This would give you a tighter gear ratio and just a lot more fun to drive! You're looking at the average price of $150-$300 for a used tranny (around my area that is).

 

is the si/ex tranny a direct bolt in? and could this be done on jackstands?

 

I have a DX tranny I'll sell to you for $50 plus shipping and Handling.

 

up, but use 4 jack stands.

Jack the front up and set the stands on lowest setting. The jack the rear up as high as possible and insert stands. Now jack the front up as high as possible and raise the front stands.
