Pushed back wheels, and cracked tranny
I want to say peace to the Honda crew worldwide.
OK, I hit a curb at 90mph, and I pushed back the the front passenger side wheel an inch or two, and I cracked the transmission, I can fit 2 fingers inside the hole. Do you all think I can bend the suspension back into place and seal up the crack with aluminum putty mix, I bought this exspensive aluminum putty mix for machinery to close up the hole. The car sounds kind of higher pitch, maybe it was because the oil was low and there was no transmission fluid inside. I turned it on for like 3 seconds.

do you have a video of this? i would like to see...haha...no....i guess it just depends how much money you have to spend. If you have the money get something new or professional done. If not.....well good luck
Since you had a collision with the curb, this would be covered by the collision part of your insurance policy. Just by the sounds of it, your car probably has several thousand dollars worth of damage to it... Call your insurer and file a claim.

Well I put the metal glue on and its strong as a brick. Anyone who wants it I can hook you up. Well There is like a clinking noise which I think is inside the engine somewhere. Maybe its something loose inside the tranny. Im gonna replace the tranny eventually. Anyone want to sell a 5th gen Prelude or Accord tranny compatible.
Duct tape, wd-40, and your expensive aluminum putty mix is NOT going to fix your problem. Face it, your up **** creek and you're going to have to tell your parents what you did
You need to take it to a shop and have professionals find out exactly whats fucked up. Most likely if you cracked your tranny your up **** creek and you might have even bent some of your motor mounts.

I bumped a curb in the snow at about... 10mph or less and I had approximately $2500 worth of damage (dealer quote). Supposedly I have controller arm damage and whatnot... so I hope you have good insurance. It's gonna cost a bundle.
