<![CDATA[Manual Tranny Swap]]>I've been thinking about going with a manual tranny swap for some time and now I'm really considering it. This is a very common swap for 6th gen accords since the auto trannies in them are pretty weak.

Who is town can do this type of tranny swap? Recommendations?

Just exploring my options at this point but appreciate any advice/feedback!

You helped us out a lot by having your homework done on this and sourcing a lot of the parts. Thanks again Jason.

Transmission from a 2000 Accord with 24k miles
ACT heavy duty clutch & flywheel
OEM slave cylinder, master cylinder, pedal assemblies, shifter assemblies, axle & half shaft, blah, blah, blah

Car is all done except reflashing the ecu for the Honda immobilizer, which will be done at Corwin tomorrow. I did drive it home tonight but the car is in limp mode...no vtec and fuel cut at 4700rpm.

Thanks to Nick and Tony at SLS for putting up with my constant phone calls about this shit over the last few weeks.

Last but not least, BIG thanks to Frank at SLS. Frank really knows his shit and really bent over backwards to get this done for me. I can't thank him enough for finishing my car under the circumstances.

Ya, for used O.E.M. parts not aftermarket or performance parts.

How about an 8lb Fidanza flywheel?

Any other suggestions for a clutch and flywheel in similar price ranges?

I say if you have the time and a place, try to do it yourself. I have done plenty of auto to manual swaps and manual to auto swaps over the years. If you can find all the parts its fairly easy depending on the car. I am not fimiliar with your car really, but doing the swap should be just all mechanical parts, I don't think the wiring will matter, but I have run into cars that have to use a wiring harness for a manual car. Either way if you figure out what your doing, and need help or someone to do it for you, I am always up for a challenge. If you go with a new automatic, I could probally throw it in fairly reasonable too.

$100, but I don't think it's necessary for this swap.

you also could need differant cross members, brake pedal or assembly depending on how it is on the vehicle, shifter, shift boots, center counsel.

i have been buying parts when i see them for sale for over a year and on the last couple i am resorting to buying new. i didnt really have a set time i needed them so ive just been picking them when i see them and the motor is going back in in the next couple weeks so i just ordered new parts.

I don't think there are too many rare parts at all. Everything seems to be readily available.
I wouldn't even consider touching a tranny myself.

I'm sure you can get all those parts call around mabye a junkyard near us have a 6g.

Replacing the auto at least would not be very difficult at all. They mostly just take time. It is too bad i didn't know about this earlier because i had a friend with a 5 spd accord that he was parting out and the motor was sold so he had everything for a manual and i would guess he would have sold it for under a grand for everything. But im pretty sure it is all gone now.
