Are you reffering to the motor? If you are talking about the motor you have to drop it out the bottom. It is alot easier. If you are talking about the tranny I think you can only go down. LOL. Good luck bro.

I was up at Acura the other day and saw the techs there dropping one out the bottom. I realise that all techs arent right all the time, I'm just giving you a direction.

This is true, it'd be virtually impossible to pull it out from the top. You've gotta take off the subframe, support the engine, unbolt your tranny and pull her out from below. It's a hell of a job though, but I'm sure you'd learn alot.
