[@rosariotorres5324]

Was your integra automatic or manual transmission? I am currently in the same situation.

Bolt it up and grind it out! Looks like a great find! The tag didn't just age well, she was well cared for

[@richardmann3396]

Thanks. This is informative. I, for one, appreciate the insight.

[@StuntDummyLives]

Right on, Brother. I was thinking of you all weekend while making the install video. It was far from easy, but I think it turned out OK.

[@revkelly85]

I think it will work bud. It was good seeing you in chat. Hope to see you on a panel or would love to talk to you sometime. Say hello to your father for me and God bless.

Why not just buy a pan from Dorman with magnetic plug????? There like $40 USD I did But I also upgraded to the TCI 3.3 qt deep pan that was like $395 USD Because I wanted to put a Autometer Trans temp gadge I went with the pro II series temp gadge I also stepped it up with a remote filter and Derale 40 row cooler

[@StuntDummyLives]

I have a deep pan w/ drain that I keep re-using. It never occurred to me that Dorman would still sell new ones, I may have to grab one of those. A remote transmission filter? Never heard of it - tell me more! That sounds like something I would use.

[@nevaeh1758]

Nice find.

[@StuntDummyLives]

So far, so good. I drove it home from the garage with no issues, but that was only about a 10 miles drive. I'm going to take it for a real test drive later today :)

[@maeryk]

It'll bolt right up, spin fine, and you'll be laughin.

[@satochinakamoto6129]

You got to match up the exact transmission. Exp. Chevy Impala 2009 has 3 engine sizes. Get the wrong transmission it won't work.

[@gatisadams]

Good luck

[@tnridge]

Have you ever rebuild an automatic transmission? Seems to be a big market for people that can do that. I don't think I know of anyone that rebuilds any more. Is it worth it?

[@StuntDummyLives]

Yes, I know how to rebuild them. I made a video doing one for a contest Cardone Auto Parts was running two years ago, and my video was voted #1 in North America. Unfortunately, my camera broke right before I made it, and I had to use a cheap one to get by so the quality isn't the best, but I may post it here, anyways. There is VERY good money is rebuilding transmissions. The problem is, nobody trusts that it's a newly rebuilt trans unless they're picking it up from a store front. There's too many guys sandblasting old transmissions, painting them to look new, and then selling them online.
