Default 92 Integra tranny question

Okay this post is going to make some people angry but it is going to be up to you to make me want to actually keep the Integra, and not sell it and buy a prelude with an automatic. I want to know what trannys will fit the stock b18 engine and give me a higher gear ratio? mine is a five speed. I drove a few 92 cicivs in the last week and they drive way nicer than any integra I have driven, then I drove an accord 4 door, stock, 4cylinder and holy shit it was better than my car. I cant stand the low ratio of the tranny and nobody else I know will drive this car because it sucks so badly shifting five million times to go three blocks, it is ridiculous. Also you are wondering, why i want to do this, well it is shitty driving this thing in stop and go rush hour traffic and this car is not fast and never will be, it is a commuter, thats it, nothing else, this will never ever be a race car, thats my big block cutlasses job. Or is there anybody in Oregon interested in trading an Automatic prelude or Integra for a 5 speed? I drove an auto 92 Integra and it was great, I would trade in a second. And dont tell me I cant drive a stick, I have driven tow trucks for 5 years, and they shift better than this car. And is 2000-2500 rpm's really normal for getting an integra into first gear? A civic will go into gear at an idle. My clutch doesnt seem bad, I have had the car about a year and it is exactly the same way now as when I got it so if the clutch was bad it would have gone out by now and it doesnt grind. If I cant bolt up a civic tranny or something else that is a higher friendlier ratio then the Integra will be on ebay by friday, and if nobody posts an answer to this then again it will be gone. Maybe I will get back to my cutlass and put a gear vendor overdrive in it and call it good, I should be able to get enough out of the integra to buy the parts, so help me out guys or I am done.
