August 2nd, 2010 10:15 PM #1Guy, can you recommend an honest and competent shop who can source and install a surplus A/T transmission for my 97 Honda Accord VTI-S?
Preferably in or around Makati. Thanks!

siguro pwede mo din subukan sa speedyfix, although it's located in mandaluyong.
i remember they were once offering their services to a fellow tsikoteer wherein they would replace a shoddy cvt tranny of a 1.3 idsi jazz w/ a fresh surplus one w/c they themselves would provide. maybe they could do the same thing for your accord bro

May 30th, 2011 11:45 PM #5After procrastinating for so long, I decided on an overhaul. I dropped off my Accord at Mel's shop in Sucat this morning for a Transmission overhaul finally.
Seems honda does not make any original rebuild kits for my tranny anymore, had to go with a made in US replacement. Mel says not to worry about the quality as he uses it on all his Honda tranny overhauls and proven that it's of good quality. I sure hope I don't get a lemon, fingers crossed!
I needed these parts :
Rebuild Kit, US made - 8K
ATF filter - 1.4K
Honda ATF 6 liters - 550 per liter
The rebuild kit and ATF filter quotation came from CarPower, Mel says he can find me a better deal, so I left the sourcing to him.
The overhaul will be finished this thursday, there was another Accord (98) tranny being overhauled, so i need to wait in line.

June 2nd, 2011 02:44 PM #7Got my Accord back today as promised, it was actually finished yesterday just couldn't drive it home, coding kasi.
drove it from Sucat to Makati along the Skyway and it was sweet and responsive, also my RPM at 100Kph is now lower at around 2.9K RPM compared to before where it was around 3.1K RPM ... I hope I see better FC now
Kwento ng katrabaho ko, meron daw sya officemate dati na Italiano na tinanong daw bakit...
