I talked to a guy in north carolina recently who was selling his 5th gear. I was interested in doing something similar to what your talking. He explained after swapping in the 5th gear from a hf into his crx dx the results weren't even close to his expectations he said it only lowered his rpms @ 60mph by about 200rpms. I wish I could remeber his explanation clearly but I can't. Bottom line from someone who did it. swap the entire trans. I have since purchased a hf trans for my 87 crx si.
