Could this be that 3rd, 4th, and 5th gear that are shot? if not then what is this noise? help=rep.
more info would help us identify the noise.does it constantly do the clanking noise?did you pop the hood and identify where it came from?
from my experiences with hondas it could be a shot rod bearing.I've never heard of a tranny making a clanking noise unless the gears are really fucked up.
and the first thing you should do to the car after you get the new tranny and whatever else you need to get it running right.get an alarm.no sense in dropping 3k into the car just to have it taken in 10 minutes at 3am.I've had two hondas stolen from me.one a 97 ek hatch with gsr swap itr tranny fully built head.and a 94 cx hatch with perfect compression 00 gsr swap.both stripped down to the shell.
but g/l and if you have any questions just pm me.
