I would like LSD and I found a few '06 and up civic Si transmissions around, so i wondered if this is as straight forward as i think it would be into my '05 RSX S? Thanks!

 

yea i dont see why not.

 

Me either, and I just wanted some opinons, and maybe someone who has done it, just to make sure. Thanks for the opinion!

Do you have any information regarding that answer?

 

the gears would sit differently then your 05 tranny

 

I just want to completely swap the whole transmission to an '06 to '08, not just the LSD. Any idea based on that?

 

The 06'+ Si tranny will not bolt up. The casing has different mounts and bolt pattern. It will not bolt up at all. You may be able to swap the gears from the Si tranny to the type-s Tranny though

 

Ok so I guess I am looking at installing an LSD, or finding a JDM DC5 type R trans correct?

 

Your talking about swapping the whole transmission correct?

A certain K20A forum has a pretty good write up on this. It's in the transmission section.

Depending on the year you will have to sort out some issues with the VSS and the shift linkage. But I think because you have an '05 you should be good.

The internals will work but not the casing

 

alright, so I am just gonna look into this a bit deeper. Thanks for the help!

 

you can get a type-r LSD on ebay from japan for $500
