Default Prelude "sport shift" tranny swap??

I actually kinda like auto sometimes but I don't really like how it lags and hunts. Is there a way to swap the Prelude auto/manual tranny into the 4th gen sedan?

Added: Damn, I think I screwed up the thread title. I meant the shiftable automatic?? What's the technical term for that tranny??

Not worth the time and headaches it would cause to wire properly etc.

They, along with every other Honda auto, leave alot to be desired.

I've driven a couple SS Shift ludes and it left much to be desired... it wouldnt let you downshift aggressivly. The # on the dash would change and just flash at you until it got to an 'acceptable' RPM. Very unpredicable system IMO.
