those autos suck.
I seen a few on craigslist but a 5spd would be ideal.

On my old prelude i replaced the tranny twice. not worth the money. if you really want to keep it auto then go to mr transmission on lougheed hwy in bby. the reason for the transmission failure is because it generates a ton of heat. for my wife's accord they put a tranny cooler and friction kit. this was two years ago for her 98 v6 accord. we've had no problems since. it cost us 3gs but there was nothing else wrong with the car.

Not the cheapest place but straight up, honest and stands by their work.
