its gonna take a bit of effort and money.

easiest method is grabbing the entire engine, ecu, and dashboard harnesses from the automatic car, making a custom tranny mount, and modifying the floor to accept the auto shifter.

you have a lot of work ahead of you.

it is MUCH cheaper and easier to sell the car and buy an automatic chassis.

trust me. been there done that, something I wont repeat

Auto to manual mounts are available and have been for a while
http://www.hamotorsports.com/49520mount.html

you will need the shift linkage for b series and manual shifter and a little cutting/ drilling to the shifter tunnel, run clutch lines, pedals, etc. Decent amount of work but doable if you really want to keep your chassis.

He's going the other way, which isn't a particularly hard swap. You can use the pedal set, but not the mounts, or the clutch line.

oh ****

must have been really tired last night, read this as a manual going to a auto

my bad

auto to manual swaps are easy! hardest part is shaving the auto shift cable bracket/floor piece and jbh-welding or siliconing a flat piece there

just use the ek manual mounts. bolts right in.

i believe the eg pedal set will work just fine. only differences will be clutch line and a few other things but are all easily surmountable problems.

have fun

94-01 integra and 92-00 civics all share pedal fitment. only difference is throttle cable sizing and fitment on the pedal. simple enough to deal with

I have everything needed to make the swap as i've purchased an EG6/9 front cut.Concerning the mounting found on A/T gearbox(EXI 1.5L) and where it is bolt on the chassis,are there any mods required to fix a M/T gearbox mounting on the chassis?
