Default question about drive shaft and axles for 97 prelude auto to manual swap.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but when i swap out my auto trans for a manual, i can use the same drive shaft and axles, correct? I do not need to buy a manual transmission starter either, do i?

you need a 5 speed half shaft, and a 5 speed starter.

Not to be disrespectful, but are you 100% sure? I ask because no other threads mention anything about the halfshaft or starter when they speak of the swaps.

i asked a tech at my work, and he said he believes that the middle shafts should be the same.

your tech is wrong.


44500-S0E-000 SHAFT ASSY., HALF (auto)
44500-S0A-000 SHAFT ASSY., HALF (5 speed)


maybe this will help you out:
