Some of you may rember me posting a question about putting a five speed in my automatic crx. Ok here is a quick run down on what im doing. I am putting a DOHC ZC into my 1991 CRX DX with a five speed zc. I have an ecu, pedal and shifter assembleys. Now what i need to know without a doubt, Are the five speed and autmatic mounts the same in a crx??? I know that a ZC will drop right into a SI but i need to know if the mounts are the same. If they are not the same, do they require welding or do they have existing holes tapped? I am planing on starting my swap in about two weeks. I know a few of you guys have done this swap. Any pictures advice or just general help would be great appreciated.

P.S. No "sell it and buy a SI" coments please, When i get this done my car will be MY CAR. You see what im sayin. If my question isnt clear enough please please let me know and ill explain further if need be. Thank you all very much for taking the time to read this long post. Everyone have a great day.

are you asking if the motor mounts between a m/t and a a/t are the same?

if so they are the same.

 

Yup thats what i wana know, if my dohc zc will will bolt directly into my dx crx. Can anyone please confirm this. Thanks agian

 

They are the same

 

I did a DOHC ZC swap in my 1991 CRX HF the mounts are the same.
The SI mounts are the same.
I really dont think honda would make diffent mounts for the DX if the others are the same i am 85% sure that they will bolt on no porblems.

 

Awsome thank you very much. If anyone else has any other info please let me know. Thank you very much agian. Everyone have a good night.

all crx mounts are the same minus SiR and i doubt anyone would tell you to sell your dx for an Si so simmer down

 

Si manual trans and ZC manual trans mounts should be the same

BUT

Automatic trans mounts are NOT the same (I've done the auto-manual conversion before)

I mean the engine bay (metal mount exceptors)

 

Ok so if the autmatic trans mount isnt the same as the five speed which mounts do i need to switch out and will there need to be any welding? Thanks for all the help.

Bump for more information please.

 

I would think that the auto tranny mount will be different from the 5sp. If you use the 5 speed mount I think you should be fine b/c the chassis of the auto and manual should be the same.

 

So the metal points on the chassi will be the exact same but just the mounts are a diffrent thickness or what. Im sorry for asking so many more questions its just i wana get everthing nailed down and order stuff if it needs to be ordered. Thanks agian

there the same

 

i thought that the back mount on the tranny that is mounted on the rear cross member needed to be moved over to the right set of holes when you changed from a/t to m/t.....could be wrong but this is what i have been told

 

Ok thanks for the help guys ill find out soon enough. Thank you all very vyer much one last time. Everyone have a great day.

Sorry for bringing back such an old post but i have news. I need to get a new rear transmission mount, like all of you said But any ways.. The SI mount will fit the metal part on my rear crossmember correct? Also where can i get one? Should i just go down to the honda dealership and order the mount from them? Thank you all very much for all of your help. Have a good day.
