Why are you swapping the J30? Does your current J30 have issues?

RSX auto trans will not bolt up to a J30...

I was wondering the same thing. Sounds like he's going from i4 auto to J30. Which would be waay too much work for the desired results.

We need a little more information to be helpful. Do you currently have a v6 or i4?

I can't help you with picking out an auto tranny, but I can tell you that reversing your entire engine bay for a 50hp upgrade probably isn't your best route. You could much more easily drop in an h22 or h23 for half the cost.
