Hey guy well recently i have meed having some trouble with my Honda accord F20B local transmission and i was trying to figure out if I should buy a new transmission or if I should just purchase a complete engine and transmission but my budget is kinda low so i was looking at a Nissan engine and tranny due to cheaper maintenance cost .


So i wanted to know what you guys think and what would be a good engine for my car and if u guys have any engine and tranny for sale that can bolt up in my accord let me know

thats is the worst mistake you will ever make in your life next to getting married to a hoochee mama,that engine and tranny is 5000 complete,i can get a foreign used tranny for 2000 for u,plus that car is a heavy car,the only nissan egine will be an sr 20 to push that ,then you will have tp pay to re wire car,ac will have to re done,axles made over,cater for about $12000,oo versus 2000 for a tranny,about 3000 with fluids changed and installed

that looking like an f20b non vtec sohc.
i believe your car carries the double solenoid on the tranny,others carry 4 solenoids

^^^ that is correct... i was havin the same problem with mines... i end up swappin out the engine and transmission and got a F22b.

Now i have a good working engine for sale...

Check bicks in Penal.... i got my engine and tranny there complete, brain harness and axles.

The problem i encountered was the gear where the speen sensor goes, in the diff stripped... it was a plastic gear....

You will not find a good working local 2 solenoid tranny.... save u t money and swap out complete.
