Default EX gear upgrade - my options?

Hi!
I did Search!

I need some info on this.
Can I use gears from other honda trannies to upgrade my stock EX 95 transmision? I'd like to have shorter gears, to rev high.
Is it possible, and what are my options?

some links if there are any would be appreciated too.

thanks!

its possible to interchange gears, but the EX tranny is the best d-series tranny. your options would be gears from the cx, dx, vx trannies, all of which have longer gears, and your other option would be the si gears which i believe, correct me if i'm wrong are the same as the EX.

if you are looking to rev through the gears faster a new lighter flywheel might be the ticket.

that's it, I was thinking if puting Si gears would be possible.
I always though that Si was shorter geared, can someone second on that?

yeah, it's a Mista Bone page.
I'm already in contact with him
My options so far are 92-05 third gear as my forth (reving high) or he just told me about third gear from 89 HF tranny which should be a direct replacement.
