Re: Auto to Manual Swap (Integra_Nguyen)
The harness should be under where the cup holders are.
The clip that plugs into the harness is what is pictured. It was was from the white box that was on the auto shifter. What I did was unclipped the white box from the harness and cut it off. Then I connected the wires and plugged the clip back into the harness.

I got them straight from Acura...the front tranny bracket. I actually got the rear tranny bracket from someone here on H-T. Just do a search for tranny mounts. The only "mount" though is the custom upper tranny mount. The others don't have any rubber mounting to them, just metal brackets. From Acura they're about $30-40 a piece. Try that if you can find it here. It's not bad. I got the clutch lines from Acura as well. Cheaper if you get them from the 01 Teg models.

Re: Auto to Manual Swap (Integra_Nguyen)
I'm planning on dropping a GSR with manual transmission into my Automatic LS. My manual transmission has a mount on it, the one on top with the three bolts. Is that the Manual Front Tranny mount your talking about, or do I still need to buy one from Hasport? I have the rest of the parts to pull this off, I'm just trying to figure out the exact brackets and mounts that I need. Can you explain the difference's between #'s 6-9? and you said Acura has #'s 6-8 to buy? Thanks for help.

Re: Auto to Manual Swap (dannykointegra)

Re: Auto to Manual Swap (usdm97DC4)

did you make sure you got the auto-manual conversion mount? not just the manual mount? my hasport box said "manual transmission conversion mount for the 94-01 integra chassis.....DCAMH-62A"

From another thread by AzN_Flava you need, "according to this, you need parts 11 BRACKET, RR. , and 15 BRKT, R. FR. STOPPER "
Seen here.....
http://www.acuraautomotivepart...MOUNT
Make sure on acuraautomotiveparts.org you selected "KA5MT" for your transmission if you didn't considering you'll have a 5 speed manual transmission.

Re: Auto to Manual Swap (confucius)
That looks like an upper tranny mount for the front that goes under the air-intake sort of. The only rear one you need is one that looks like a "T". Ill take a pic of my hasport one on my tranny tonight.

Re: Auto to Manual Swap (masterasia)
Where were you a year ago when i was getting this done. I searched out parts for a year and was finally able to have it done when i found someone willing to do it for 1/3rd the cost of all the major shops. I would have loved to do it myself but i could not risk any major downtime on my car, and at that time there was no How-to on the subject like this one. Great write up and i hope that it helps some people do this swap. And to anyone considering this swap, do it or sell your auto and buy a manual teg. It cost me a bit of money but it was worth every cent.

Noooo the Hasport one is the front upper mount, the only REAR one you need from Acura and im not sure which one it is exactly...but it looks like a T.

Re: Auto to Manual Swap (usdm97DC4)
This is a great right up
My only question is: I have a eg coupe AT that I want to swap in an H22, does this mean I also need to purchase this adapter bracket, or does my buying the H22 mounts eliminate this need?
