Anyone know if the Civic/Accord, etc, diesel gearboxes will bolt up to an F20C?

I guess we'll have a bit more experience with the diesels in here, anyone had a look at both and know how close they are? An ebay trawl makes the bolt patterns look pretty similar bar the odd one or two bolts.

Interesting... Is that because they're l more robust? More compact? Different ratio?

I'm thinking transverse mounting might be the reason - I'm guessing they work better in a mildly unconformable buggy ?

Sorry, no idea on the bolt patterns matching up though. This chap asked a similar question five years ago - do you know him ? https://www.s2ki.com/forums/uk-irela...arbox-1042073/

This is going to be what you don't need:

But it will give you a guide.

Cheers, if it needs an adaptor there's not much point using the Honda boxes - can bolt anything on then anyway.
