Default dx and SI tranny question!!!!

from the information posted on the FAQ i am to assume that the 2nd gears on both these transmissions are the same? therefor i could swap my ****ed up SI 2nd gear with a functional 2nd gear from my dx L3 tranny?

how hard would this be?

· What are the common L3 transmission Gear Ratios?
1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th Final
88-91 Civic/CRX DX 3.25 1.894 1.259 0.937 0.771 3.88
88-91 Civic/CRX SI 3.25 1.894 1.259 0.937 0.771 4.25
??? JDM DOHC ZC 3.25 1.944 1.250 0.909 0.878 3.88
92-95 Civic Si/EX 3.25 1.900 1.250 0.909 0.702 4.25
92-95 Civic DX 3.25 1.761 1.172 0.937 0.702 4.058
92-95 Civic CX/VX 3.25 1.894 1.066 0.853 0.771 3.25

the DX and Si tranny ratios are veryyyyyyy close to the same
identical if u would like to say since i beleive 2 gears are only 0.001-0.002 ratio off (wich doesnt really hurt the acceleration)
and all u wanna do is swap the gears... or synchros...
yes they will fit ea other...

how much of an effect does the FD have on everything?

like say you wanted to do a z6 swap. Would it be okay to use the cable DX tranny, or would the cable Si tranny be better since it has the same FD as the Z6 transmission?

the Si has a better final drive for accelerating, but your gonna stay wound up going down a high way or anyhting
