redline or purple power is better fluid to use after upgrades or you can get a tranny cooler sometimes they help but it does not last as long as upgraded parts will.

this is what the site say
Our Racing Overhaul Kits contain the housing & cover gaskets,filter,
o-rings,checkballs,gear shaft locknuts, lock washer, sealing washers
& metal clad seals. The Master Racing Overhaul kits also include
Alto Red Eagle hight-performance clutches and kolene treated steel
for all clutch packs.
i agree with you i think the auto transmission of a 01-05 are the same

well according the the honda parts guide they are the same from my research if anyone else can chime in on this then its a go and get the TCI kit to help you poor autos out. I know I enjoyed mine under boost and miss the sound of the BOV but I can't help but love my 6 speed rsx-s more.

the 01-03 are the same I replaced my warped tranny from a 03. same bolt up etc.. as for the kit I guess you might have to wait or see if its the same . As far as I know so far its all the same parts, if not I know the discs are the same atleast.

they are the same trannies, all of them
I bolted a 2004 tranny up to my 2002,
what I did noticed different however is the 01-02(possibly 03's too) have trouble and shift hard.
the 04 tranny shifts a lot better and more smooth, all of the parts are the same, or should be the same for the 01-05 tranny.

i would call and talk to someone who knows for sure not just speculating that because the outside is the same then the inside must be the same!
