01 LX turbo with 5 spd 04 EX trani

My turbo 01 civic LX trani took a dive so I replaced it with an EX manual trani from a 04 civic with only 129 ml.
i got to say that it has a better gear ratio it alouds me to rev up higher effortlesly it was a great investment $800 plus $300 install.

I got all engine mounts replaced at the same time, oh boy what a difference.
