prelude trans swap with atts?

[beyonddalimit]

has anyone perform a tranny swap with atts on it? i would like to know if its possible to do so because i found 1 for about $250.

there are differences in the block that wont allow it to work

For starters you're going to need the SH H22 block.
You're also going to have to try and adapt the SH radiator.
From there you're going to have to wire the ATTS.

And that is just for starters...

[beyonddalimit]

then i guess im just gonna forget about it... o'well.....

Has anyone ever PHYSICALLY try this or are these answers off speculation and what you've read. I also wouldnt mind doing this tranny swap as they are cheaper than M2B4s and I dont really care for the ATTS, I juss want the tranny alone. I guess it will take someone to risk 4-500 dollars to try this out.

You can find M2B4's for 500. The ATTS is a bulky and complicated system, plus you'll have to figure out how to adapt the electronics to work it.

If you don't care about having the ATTS working then why not just get a M2A4 or H23 trans? The ATTS trans doesn't have a limited slip diff.

Like everyone else said, the blocks are different. You can get (or make) adapter plates for it, but after the sensors set up to make it work properly (if it is possible to set it up)and all that, it probably wouldn't be worth the effort. And running it without ATTS hooked up isn't brilliant, either, because of the extra weight of the unit.

Exactly, whats the point of doing all the work to mount it in the car if you aren't going to use it.

[CBAccordA4]

Well from what I've read I've come to believe that its a limited slip unit as well, thats why, I though it was the same as the m2b4 but less in price, thats why I was askin about getting rid of the atts, because who needs it when you can get a LSD m2u4 (lsd ???) without atts for less than a m2b4 with lsd. By the way anywhere i look for a m2b4 the price is like 800, 7 and change the least now a days. Again I have no interest in ATTS.

i also heard it wont work because of axle placement

[CBAccordA4]

I asked a seller on ebay and as I thought, the tranny is LSD. Actually its kind of obvious because why would a performance car from honda in the year 2000 come without an LSD, especially with a Type S badge on it.

there was a red cd5 coupe at AFM, that was converted to SH

i didnt really paid any attention to them, until i saw the location of the oil filter,
thats when the owner told me they just did ripped the whole prelude and swapped everything into the CD5, with working atts no CEL's the whole 9 yards
it was different, but i wouldnt go through all that trouble

i am shopping around and i found a 5sp prelude with original motor and tranny and it has the atts tranny? so i would or wouldn't be able to swap this with easy? or i can swap the motor and tranny and ditch the atts? any insight would be good since i am shopping around for an h22.

Theres all sorts of wiring to do that makes this a ridiculous project. Theres also hub replacement if you dont have abs. I read up on it one day on preludepower and its just not worth the effort and added weight.
