Default 1995 v6+manual tranny swaps

Hey guys I just picked up my sis's old car and was wondering if there were any possible manual tranny swaps for it and also if so what is the difficulty and expense that I would be looking at? Thanks so much guys any replies would be great.

P.S. Has anyone done performance upgrades to the V6 and if so what and how'd it work out?

I'm about 99% sure that it only came in auto trans. The block however is the same as the older Acura Legend, so there is a chance that a Legend trans would bolt up; However that still leaves you needing shift/clutch linkages.
Might not be worth all the time and effort.

They were all automatic.

Use all the parts from a legend. Check www.accordinglydone.com - I believe there is a write up in there from a guy in Canada.

^ what he said...
The 95 V6 also has little to no aftermarket support. About all you can buy for it is an intake and maybe get a custom exhaust made. Unless they make mods for the Acura Legend that will fit.
Definitely not worth the effort to do a trans swap in my opinion. Likely the swap would cost more than the car is worth.
