That is a good thread at honda-tech, Bongo. Thanks for sharing, and for the remarkable info about the swappability of the first gen insight FD with the seventh gen Civics. Most interesting part there would be how the Insight FD is slightly taller than the famed VX/CX FD was in the fifth gen civics. Way taller gearing for an seventh gen HX civic is obviously possible. I wonder too, then, if the early Civic hybrid FD is swappable (2003-2005 were MT). Keep us updated! Way cool.

Reason: spelling of "there" ... and I like "swappable" too much to change it.
