ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

          one of my friends converted to manual trans . not that hard . just go to a junk yrd and find all the neccesary parts you need . only problem you will run the auto tranny mount . you will have to remove the bracket and weld the manual bracket . i have seen these kits somewhere online that bolts on your existing auto bracket.. might want to do a search on that
          under contruction!

              I think I read somewhere on here that you can use a 5th gen accord tranny mount to avoid cutting and welding the frame mount. Or if you've got the money just get the ESP mounts, they are, like, nice. I don't know too much about 5 spd swaps since my wagon came 5spd.

              Oh and if youre already doing an engine swap, then you might as well do the manual swap, seeing as youre going to have everything already out. Makes it alot easier.

                      depending on where you source your parts from, easily over 500 dollars.

                      before you start buying parts, weigh your options and your pocket book to see if it's more feasible to just buy a manual car already instead of doing the conversion.

                        I had my car dyno'd before and after and I gained 22.23whp and 28.14wtq when I converted to manual. I also have Bisi's 8.9lbs flywheel and used an M2A4 tranny when I converted.
                        3 CB's gone....

                        Still miss the CB though......maybe one day.

                          i don't want to start a new thread but since we are basically on the same subject,

                          can i reuse the bolts that hold my auto tranny to the engine to install my manual tranny?
