Default z3 tranny(06+ civic SI) bolt up to rsx?

can you bolt up the FG2(K20Z3) transmission to the K20Z1 motor with no issues. I know that there is drive by wire but I don't know if that would cause any issues. thanks!

there are issues. You have to do some customizing for the shift linkages because they are different

no, wont work. Shifter design is different and also tranny mount on housing is different also does not have gear driven speedo but if you have an 05-06' the speedo pickup would be the same as the Si, problem becomes mounting up and shifting.
