    Changed mine just this afternoon, and OMFG I couldn't believe how much smoother the car shifts! Used the Honda MTF, since the synchromesh seems to be out of stock everywhere in my area.
    I only managed to get about 2 1/2 quarts in to the tranny, and the car was about as close to level as I could get it (did this at my folks place, and their driveway isn't exactly horizontal)

    Only issue I came across was losing the drain bolt washer in to the goop, then I friggin forgot to fish it out...so no washer currently on my tranny drain plug! Think my car's gonna explode before my next change?

    Also, even with the fancy tube/funnel, it's a PITA getting the fluid in to the car, and not all over everything else.

    Whoops I didn't read the page before.

    I believe that's what I also read.

    it takes less than 2 quarts.. i have an aem v2 and went through my engine bay, seemed easier cause the funnel would just sit there by the intake

    I just changed my trans fluid. Seriously easier than a regular oil change. (First time for me changing fluids on my EP3) It was a pain in the ass getting to the filter lol

    Thanks for the DIY

    i was thinkin of just puttin a jack under the front corner and taking off the wheel and when i take out the drain plug i would lower it down with the jack and see if i could get more out then leaving it level and when i filled the tranny i would jack it back does this sound like a good idea or not??

    You're thinking B-Series. Transmission is on the driver's side on K-series

    You can, but I really don't think you'll get like an extra quart out or anything. Surprisingly, when I filled mine back up, the overfill started to pour at 1.5qts just like my manual said.
