I've got a F23A1 '99 Japanese built Accord with 270k and the tranny is finally dying. Do I need to replace the tranny from a Japan Accord or can I use any 6th generation transmission? The guy at the junkyard wasn't sure.

 

I would call and ask a dealer service department but my guess is that you can use either. You may want to get a used one from Japan as they are usually low mileage and cheaper, I have heard. I have never bought one myself but if you search on JDM transmissions you may glad to see the prices.

 

I found this on alldatadiy.comApplication and ID
hn01accor_sm1-004c

 

If you have an auto tranny you're going to either want to rebuild it or swap in one of the same id.

 

Is there something in the id I need to pay attention to besides the MAXA? Are you saying if I find any 6th generation MAXA I could swap it out? Thanks
