I was looking around the web, but could not find the transmission code for the S2000 transmission. Also while looking around I noticed that the only other rwd honda that seems to exist is the passport. Would it be possible to bolt on the passport tranny onto an s2000 block, even thought he s2000 is 6 speed and the passport is 5? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

the Passport is basically a rebadged Isuzu Rodeo,so I don't think the drivetrain is Honda.

The S2000 uses an Aftermarket g/box.
It simply fitted with ratios to suit, and a bell housing to fit the F20c

I believe its a Getrag?
All I know is its the same box thats fitted to the Lotus Carlton, and New Chevy Corvette. :D

No wonder they look identical.

I doubt that it's a BW T-56 which is what the Vette uses.. since from what I've read, it's a purpose designed tranny from Honda

quote from www.hondacars.com

Honda engineers designed a close-ratio, 6-speed manual transmission for the S2000. The use of double-cone synchronizers for 1st, 3rd and 4th gears, and triple-cone synchronizers for 2nd gear, helps reduce shift effort. Reverse gear uses single-cone synchronizers for smoother shifting and quieter operation.

Apparently they modified the trany for the 2004 S2K

"The transmission has substantially improved shift feel, thanks to single carbon fiber synchronizer rings replacing dual brass synchros."
