    Well it finally happened!

    So I pick my roommate up from work the other day(he had a flat tire) and I was driving back, then we decided to take a "Smoke" Cruise, and when we got back 20 min later the car started billowing smoke. I didn't ever hear anything or notice anything while I was driving. Anyway, I took it into the local Honda shop, and the Tech called me back like 30 min later. He then went on to inform me that my part of my tranny exploded! It shot a chunk of metal through the pan the size of a quarter. All of the damage is going to cost almost $4000 to fix so I'm going to get a different vehicle. I will say one thing about my CB7 it was a hell of a lot of fun when it ran! So I'm thinking about getting a S-10 next.

        ya but he might have damged other things than just the tranny.but if its just the tranny i think he should keep it and go to another shop because thats to much for a stupid tranny.

          This means its time for the H22A swap and just get other parts you need from a junk yard.

              sorry bros..... Im in college and I need a really reliable vehicle, and it just wouldnt be worth putting like 3 grand into a car that is worth less than that. plus if you think about it, my CB7 is almost 15 years old. I just dont have the time or funds to lose that much money doing a swap.

                      dude, just buy a used tranny for it, throw it in and be done with it. No sense in parting out a perfectly good car.

                          hmmm... 4k sounds utterly ridiculous, though i suppose it's a "normal" price from the dealer. you could get an h22 swap with everything you need, and installed for less.

                          or you could just replace the existing f22 with another f22 for even significantly less than 4k, and much less than the h22.


                          absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

                              It is a Sedan, tan interior, jay187 is right, because the cv joints are going out as well, plus the A/C stopped working.
