Yes, 03-05 HCH is an L variant and spins clockwise, the D series FD would fit but the gears are cut backward. 01-05 Civic D17 and 08 Fit used the same diff.

I just purchased the two gear boxes and will be here any day, I also have an insight 5 speed. it too is a very similar trans but the pinion shaft looks longer, Id really love the 3.2..... it is longer though so maybe it can be machined? I need to pull it out of the car still but I will and pull it apart just for reference (and practice)

One thing about my car is I want a small tire, smaller than the fit..... when it comes to eco this isn't a good example of what it could be, for me its comfort based since even a stock manual Fit has horrible highway gearing even for the eco-unconscious.

One other option is importing a EDM or JDM trans with 4.1 FD for the same price I paid for the two with shipping.
