yes the s2k is rwd.

f22ax, f22bx, f23x will all bolt up.

h series trannies, you will need the flex plate to bolt up.

 

OH YEA!!! i hella forgot about that, i was thinking it was from the older prelude SI's.

 

:lmfao:

yea, the old prelude si's had "b" 20's, which are said to be an early h-series, it was a real oddball (nothing like the other b16/b18/b20's)

I believe that these tranies should work, as a complete list (as in any tranny mated this these engine codes)

f22b1
f22b2
f22's from odyssey (b6?)
h23
f23*

note the h23 will need the flex plate mentioned earlier (i believe).

the engine code h22 should be avoided for reasons of different gearing (pretty sure it has shorter gears, the engine revs higher)

 

why do you have an asterik next to f23? i have my eyes on a f23 tranny.

 

its cause i dont know the call letters for the f23, it will work perfect, i just didn't want someone looking for an f23x engine code anywhere, lol

 

Basicly any h or f series tranny will work. Since its an automatic i dont believe that any of the h22a trannys will work though. All of the 93 through 96 h22a's were manual, and all of the 97 & up models have the sport shifter auto(i think you have to have the correct ecu to make the ss tranny work). If i were you i would be looking for an ex model transmission. For one the ex model trannys have a little shorter 2nd gear and a lot shorter 3rd gear (than the lx trannys) for better acceleration. And for two those of us who have dx and lx models u know that the car cuts off at 120. The ex model either doesnt have a governer or i just havent went fast enough to hit it (about 135mph). The h series trannys will put you so high in the revs that you would eat alot more gas and you wouldnt gain that much in preformance to outweigh it.(lx tranny 2500rpms at 70 mph in 5th, h22a tranny 4000rpms at 70mph in 5th)

Honda governers are in the tranny not in the ecu. You can argue all you want to but i know for a fact that me and my boy both have h22a swaps. I have the FULL swap (h22a engine and tranny) and he only has the engine he kept his F22 tranny. We both have reprogramed ecu's and he has a VAFC II w/vtec controller. Mine will do 150 or faster all day long. His cuts off at 120 in the top of 3rd gear. the auto trannys should have about the same gearing diffrences and the manual.

 

yea, you just said you have a chipped ecu, without your ecu being chipped your top speed would be 114 for a h22

 

:wtf: That made absolutly no sense. we both have chiped ecus. His still cuts off at 120. :slap: And even before i got my reprogramed ecu it would still do over 140. So im calling :bs: on your 114 for an h22 look on any web site the manufaturers stated top speed for a bone stock prelude h22a is 135mph.

 

Yeah. I don't think any Prelude or Accord has used a govenor. Me and this 6thG LX Sedan (5spd) and me (6thG EX 4spdAT) were on the interstate one night doing 130 side by side

 

that was bs, i was watching this auction on ebay for a f23 tranny and the starting price was 150, i look today and its 680....screw him
