alright guys... i need your help and i need to know this pretty quickly... i am getting a really good deal on this prelude but it is automatic. i want to know how much it would cost to have a shop (and if there are any on here that could do it for me???) swap out the tranny and switch the car to manual transmission?? i could provide the tranny and everything all i need is the labor. what else would i need for the swap too... tranny, and???
thanks

tranny, hydrolics(or cable assembly), clutch pedal assembly, shifter setup, flywheel, pressure plate, TO bearing, clutch, pilot bearing...and some wiring.

 

pricing of installation? a shop that can do it?

 

no idea...honestly, i would charge ya about 1500 to convert it..but thats me, id say expect about 2k from a shop, but i could be wrong. and no, i wouldnt convert it...i hate converting shit.

 

it would cost you about $600 to have colin to do it racing integration. i had it done on my car, i paid $750 labor for the h22 swap, and $350 for the auto to manual conversion. but since i did a swap along with the conversion, it wasnt too bad.

here is what you need off the top of my head:
tranny
fly wheel
clutch
clutch pedal
5-speed brake pedal
clutch master cylinder
slave cylinder
all the lines from the clutch master cylinder to the tranny
passenger side tranny mount and bracket
passenger side 5-speed axle
shift cables
shifter assembly
and you may need an ecu from a 5-speed.

it costs alot to do.
i'll get the link for you

 

same applies to prelude

where could i get all these parts? i have the tranny, flywheel, and clutch. 600 sounds good. that is saying that i have all the parts ready for him and he just swaps everything right? accord95... you had all these parts when you did the conversion? how did you go about doing it?
oh and thanks a lot for all your help so far guys

 

go here and give these guys a call for those hard to find parts like shifter assembly and pedal set. http://haprecycling.com/changeovers.html

Good Luck, collecting all those parts is a bizatch.

 

getting the parts was a pain in my ass, but luckily i only had to get a few parts because i bought a whole prelude front clip. the main reason i had to look for extra parts is because i bought a JDM prelude front clip. so i couldnt use the clutch lines and i had to buy accord pedals. since the extra shit was so hard to find, i bought them new from napa or honda. some of the parts you can only get from honda, like the tranny bracket and shifter assembly.

 

i am just imagining how expensive those parts are going to be from honda....

thanks again guys
