i have an 88 accord dx 5sp, and my tranny took a dump on me the other day. I cant find any dx around where i live. So i was wondering if an LX-i tranny would work. If it would, is there anything i have to change to put it in(ex. clutch pack). If anyone has any info about this please tell me it would help a lot.

It will drop right in no problem. The only thing is that a few gear ratios are slightly differant, but the final drive is the same so your speedo will still be on the mark.

I highly reccomend you get your flywheel resurfaced and get a new clutch in there since you have to go through all the trouble of dropping the tranny.

oh and get the free pdf shop manual from www.pauldesign.ru

Thanks alot for the info. the LX-i tranny is the only one i can find in my area except for buying a new one. I dont have that kind of money.
