Default what auto tranny can i put in my 98

got the ever so UN-popular failing 98 4 banger tranny. what other automatic transmissions can i put in it (besides the obvious 98-2002 accord transmission). Can a 94-97 tranny work?? i know it will bolt up but would it be ok. Not used to a newer (although it is 10 years ol ) car, i like to stick to the EFs but this is the wife's car. Thanks for any and all help....BTW searched and found plenty of people saying "I gotta replace" but no compatibily info.

Your motor is an f-series so any f-series tranny will bolt up except the f20c.

Ok i have that one figured out already...i know about series of motors and such...teh questions is...will it 'work' right??? For instance...you can put a 92-95 civic auto tranny in a 88-91 but there are two sylinoids for teh clutch packs so you have to rig it to ever go into overdrive. would i be in the same boat with a 97 tranny where i woudl have to rig the poopy out of it to work??? also it probably would just 'bolt' on to the engine, but would it bolt up to the frame rail and front and rear cross members the same??

i was looking how i could put more power trough my honda fit's auto transmission, i already did the aux oil cooler, i could do a valve body job and a clutch plate upgrade but it came to my attention that the honda fit and the acura rdx 07 to 08 has the same transmission number.
can someone confirm that the rdx tranny fits the fit?

i didnt want to create a new thread so i took the one closer to my subject
