Transmission Compatibility?

Transmission Compatibility?
Hey guys, I own a '89 Honda Legend and I want a manual transmission. Unfortunately down here in Australia they didn't really import many Legends with a manual transmission here so I have only come across about 4 on my searches.
However I know there is an Accord which uses a newer version of the Legends engine (C27A1-C27A4) and it has a manual transmission. I also know that with a little bit of modification it will fit up to the Legend engine.
So.... my question is, which year Accords had the 2.7litre (C27A4) V6 engine and does the V6 use the same manual transmission as the 4 cylinder version or are they two completely different transmissions?
Thanks very much for your time.
Kind Regards,
Steve

RE: Transmission Compatibility?
what you are going to need to do is look for Acura parts, because the Legends in the US are under the Acura nameplate. look for an 89 Acura legend and you'll find parts that will mount up without modification

good luck with that since you can sway a manual legend but if you gotta import parts it is going to get very expensive quick........Acura and Honda parts are pretty much interchangeable if you know what you are doing........

Thanks for the replies but I already knew all that.
I just need to know:
1) What year Accords had the C27A4
2) Whether the V6 Accord and the 4 Cylinder Accord shared the same manual transmission?
Thanks very much.

Thanks very much. I thought they might be, I was just talking with a friend about it the other day who insisted that the V6 and I-4 might share hte same manual transmission.
Thanks for your help.
Thanks for your help.

96 accord v6 manual transmission swap
Ok so I have been trying figure out what manual transmission will bolt up to my 96 accord v6 2.7 , I know that they didn't come with an manual transmission for the accord v6 on that year but I hate automatic and lost reverse a few years back and have been dealing with it because I don't want to just swap for an nother automatic. So my question is what can I look for that will bolt right up to my motor? I believe it has the c27a4 motor but not positive.
Thank you for any help

In the end I followed my own advice and found a sweet 2006 Acura TL 6-Speed; this of course is a long way of suggesting the same advice to you. Fix the transmission in your car, sell it, and use the proceeds to buy something else with a stick.
