What year is the hatchback tranny?

 

i dont know, i am trying to find a tranny that will fit, so if you know a year that would be good news s and a great help

 

I just replied to your other post, but the HF has really high gearing. Its not that the CRX has high gearing, its your model CRX. ie, the Si gearing is much lower than the HF. Any D series transmission from 89-91 will fit on your car except for the 86-89 Integra trannies. Also forgot to mention that in the other post.

 

what would be the best tranny to get that i can just slap on with out andy modding.

 

89-91 Civic/CRX Si tranny. Or personally, the 90-91 Civic EX tranny, it has a longer 5th gear, good for highway mileage. Not by much, but hey. Its the thought that counts . I have the DX tranny on my D15B7 with basic bolt-ons and it drives just fine, but racing isn't the best, gears are kinda long. Not near as long as the HF though. So if you are strapped for cash, you can usually find a DX tranny for somewhat cheap. Its a pretty good improvement from the HF.

 

will the 91 civic ex tranny bolt right on? i wont have to buy any parts will i?

 

Dude all d-series trannys bolt to all d-series motors just make sure you get a cable tranny and not a hydro
