CLS Tran Swap
 

My 02 accord v6 ex.I was thinking about doing a cls 6spd swap...possible?? need help.

RE: CLS Tran Swap
 

You can do it,But will cost you more than the car is worth in most cases.

My advice is if you want a manual accord..you should get one that came manual from the factory,you will be solely dependent on the person,or mechanic who does the swap..

I have always thought that auto to manual swaps are not worth it. Especially if you are paying a shop to do it for you, because there is a ton of labor involved.

You dont know how much i want to manual swap,but sadly i know even if me and my dad do it,it wont be worth it in the long and short run. But mark my words,my next vehicle,will be a 6 speed.

RE: CLS Tran Swap
 

^ words have been marked, i will kick you in the shin if you get 5 or 7 speeds.

RE: CLS Tran Swap
 

lol,i will settle for 5,but 6 is what im aiming for... 08 TL-S,RSX-S,idk...lol

RE: CLS Tran Swap
 

I am always trying to shift into my imaginary 6th gear... what a surprise when I downshift to 4th!

RE: CLS Tran Swap
 

better yet throw it in reverse going 70mph. lol

RE: CLS Tran Swap
 

LOL1...i thought you were going to say reverse..

RE: CLS Tran Swap
 

you mine as well sell the accord and buy the entire cl-s ur getting the tranny from, its probly a bit faster and no work needs to be done

RE: CLS Tran Swap
 

Hahah I used to do that with my auto... you could throw it in reverse over 30 and it wouldn't do anything except go into neutral and flip the reverse lights on. scared plenty of people.

good thing they have a reverse and 1st gear lockout on the manuals

RE: CLS Tran Swap
 

Yeah my friends supra if you put it anywhere close to reverse the lights come on so he does it to freak people out.

RE: CLS Tran Swap
 

true, my friends told me that its worth a lot too..but the thing is I want to keep this car and manage to do better performance to it; my goal is an accord that is all decked out with new ideas to it. and I know this is a dumb question, that is is ok to run supercharger on an auto??

RE: CLS Tran Swap
 

It's fine, just get your tranny rebuilt by Dr. Evil or Level 10. I believe that it cost around $4500.
