I just watched a video on swapping a Honda Civic tranny. Definitely enduring!

And thanks for clarifying ISB. I should've connected the two LOL. *Facepalm*. So at this stage, it's safe to conclude my research proved useful.

I'm looking for used tranny's now online. Also made an enquiry to Hondworld (found on this forum). Maybe they can recondition it for a cheaper price. We'll see!

Thanks for getting back!
