Title says HF. Bought it really cheap from some old guy that had it sitting in is drive way for like 5 years. Was gonna throw b16a3 in it then realized it was more work than i wanted to do. So now it's on Ebay, but was curious to see how much the trannys were because it could be a good winter beater! lol

there are differences in bell housing internal webbing between different gboxes. you need to keep an eye on that - also the position of bolts can differ if you're changing years.

We compared two ZC Gboxes when i was installing my LSD and they were different.

You should be able to use any 84-87 CRX transmission, with possible exception to the 1.3, on your car. The gearing is a bit different, but all the 1.5 trannies can bolt up to the motors. I have had a 85Si (current), 1 87dx, 2 86dxs, and have swapped around trannies. I had a Si tranny in the 87 for years. Just make sure the tranny you get isn't leaking oil onto the clutch/flywheel assy.
