4spd DX tranny VS. 5spd HF tranny...

[AKAudioINC]

Money issues are causing this question... I have my old 4spd DX tranny or my original 5spd HF tranny to go with my JDM 1.5 SOHC VTEC... I remember when I put the 4spd on a ZC in my EF hatch before it was quick, but it would max out too fast. Although the HF 5spd has five gears and was designed for economy 1.5 SOHC non-VTEC. I'm not sure the turnout between the two? I see everyday on ImportAtlanta D-Series trannies going fairly cheap, but I'm worried about a rebuild being necessary. WTF should I do??? Plus damn I need a D-Series SOHC VTEC ecu for this engine aswell, somebody help me!!!

uhh go with the five speed.. and d series ecu's aren't hard to find. you can usually find them pretty cheap.

i thought 4 speeds were the STD & 5 speed were the DX & SI?

if you are looking for performance, both of the trannies suck ass... the hf tops out around 200mph ... if you have it bolted to a stock d series you will never get out of 3rd gear unless you just want to save gas... you can hit 80-90 mph in second gear with those... i would recommend an si or dx or the hf with a si final drive.... you can pick up these all day for under 100....
