Default transmission upgrade

well, i found out that my speed sensor was bad, so i replaced it, then the tranny started downshifting very roughly, so i posted a thread about it, i was told it may be an electrical problem, so i disconnected the sensor, went ok for a week or two, and my tranny clanks hard when it upshifts, i drove it home last night and i was stuck in 2nd for the longest, then it went to third, never went to forth the whole time, if anyone has any suggestions, by all means, fire away, however, i'd also like to know what, if any "slapstick" tranny will fit for my 91 accord sedan, cuz i'd rather have one of those, if not, so be it, i'd appreciate any input, thank you.

Do what i did get a JDM 5 speed manual transmission put a stage 2 clutch on it, Limited slip differential (LSD), lightened flywheel and a short shift, then youll be set. Total coast after everythings done around 2500$ USD. Or get a remanufactured honda certified tranny for about 2000$ and let the dealership put it in for about 1500$ its your call..
