Transmission Swap from Auto to the beloved Manual
I have a `94 civic EX coupe AT- I hate the auto trans... I hate it I hate it I hate it! I had a 01 and had to get rid of it because ins. was $$$$, like woh'. it was MT, and I loved that car! I bought this car so that the wifey could drive it if she needed too.
I would consider myself to be very mechanicly inclinded. I want, I mean I need to take and chuck that AT. everyone tells me that it'd be a big job, well no crap! but what's big, what do they mean? Ive thought about it and I think that Ive thought it all the way through. I figure, with my brothers help, and his conv. garage/shop, we could have it done in a weekend.
I am now searching for a tranny, but what else do I need?
obviously the pedal swap, mounting the master cyl. on the fire wall with H lines, the center console replacement, I dont know a thing about the shifting assembly! and after all that, I suppose that I'd need to replace to control panel, inner dash plate.... can you guys help me out here?
what I was thinking was just go to the auction with my lic. buddy and by a wrecked to totalled civic coupe... what year could I get to make the job quicker and easier?
