damn, seems like J swaps are everywhere in the last month or so. Nice to see people doing things outside the box lately.

What tranny do you use on those?

trannies can be pulled out of different cars, but be warned, they are hard to find, and if found, they are hella expensive. but to answer your question, they can be pulled out of really any J motor car. (if you are running the hasport mounts, it has to be a 6 spd, which then narrows it down to 03+ accord, 03 CL Type S, and 04+ TLs, if i remember correctly)

I dont think 1000 dollars is expensive for a transmission.

Yes, they are very cheap. A 3.5 longblock from Odessy or Pilot with the TL 6spd LSD stock will put down 260whp http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcnaoVuhr0w
