Default Del sol auto to manual question

I have a 93 auto del sol s with a d15b7 and was planning on swapping a manual d16z6 in it. My question is whether it'll be a straight forward swap . Will the original wiring harness on the z6 plug directly into the del sol or will i have to modify some wires? What about the shifter, will i have to make a custom bracket for the shifter?

This has been covered a bunch of times man,

To answer your question tho it is pretty straight forward just like a civic, the original wiring should be alright I'm not 100% sure on that you'll need a different ecu tho for sure otherwise I know you'll have to modify your wiring and you NEED a shifter from a del sol no question about it otherwise yes you have to modify one.

There was a good write up on here I'll look for it for you.

As promised, this is for an Eg or something but the process is nearly identical with a few minor changes. aka shift linkage and what not, obvious stuff otherwise bump this and someone will get back to you or Pm me or Luserkid

Parts Necessary for a Civic or Del Sol Auto to Manual Transmission Conversion:

-Manual Transmission
-Clutch/Pressure Plate/Throw Out Bearing (your average clutch kit will do the trick)
-SOHC Flywheel w/bolts
-Del Sol SOHC Shift Linkage (or just SOHC civic linkage for anything other than a del sol)
-Shifter (civic or del sol stock shifter will work fine)
-Shift **** (see comment from above)
-Clutch Fluid Resevoir
-Clutch Master Cylinder (Civic, Integra, or Del Sol)
-Clutch Slave Cylinder (Civic Integra, or Cel Sol
-Clutch Hard Lines (Civic, Del Sol, or Intgra should all work, or custom bent or braided steel lines..)
-Clutch/Brake Pedal Assembly (gas pedal doesn't need to be changed)
-Auto-Manual Conversion Mount (jdmshit.com has it for $110 shipped)
-Manual p28 ECU or Convert an Auto p28(Search for this)
-Manual Throttle Cable (I am not sure if this is necessary.. anyone?)
-Lower Manual Transmission Mount (OEM)

Wiring Directions Found Here:

With all of this, you can do your auto-manual swap easily. All you will have to do then is cut the center section of your car to let the shifter come through and move properly (see link above for visuals).

EDIT: ADDED TWO ITEMS FROM BELOW to idriveadelsol7 for adding them!

- manual throttle cable
- lower manual transmission mount (oem) some people run it without this mount. it's useless...
