Swapping AT to MT
 
Ok Im swapping my ef civic dx. It as an automatic tranny in it. What shift linkage do i need to use or does it matter since i have to cut the hole and mount it anyways? and what else do i need besides the pedal assembley?

Get a linkage from a ef. The pedal assembly, clutch cable. A manual trans fly wheel. And a little bit of wiring I believe.

And a manual trans of course

Ok, I've heard you have to swap out the trans mission mount pocket on the passenger side?

A manual trans and manual trans mount and it will be good to good.

this has been covered many times
use the search button

Pm5/6 ECU ( sepending if staying dpfi or mpfi )
88-91 SOHC manual transmission
pedal assembly of 88-91 civic/crx/sedan
linkage off 88-91 civic/crx/sedan
rear/passenger side shock tower motor mount bracket off 88-91 civic/crx/sedan (m/t)
clutch cable off 88-91 civic/crx/sedan
flywheel/clutch for 88-91 civic/crx/sedan
you will also need the flywheel/clutch bolts

Flywheel- 12point 17mm bolts
clutch- 12pt 10mm bolts
( You NEED the 12pt sockets to get these off, no ther sockets will fit,if you try you will strip them first try )


these are just parts you need. you will also need to do some wiring.
you will also have to plug the transmission hoses coming from the radiator
( idk if you NEED to, but better safe than sorry )

This thread was beneficial for me. B series will be slightly different, of course. http://www.gassavers.org/showthread.php?t=1033

Only wiring you need to do is the reverse lights

and either jump the black and white starter signal wire plug at the range switch or solder the wires together to make a connection to the starter.

just to clarify, theres a 2 pin plug on the auto shifter assy, take that plug, it will have 2 wires, both are black with a white stripe, these wires need to make a connection so the starter will recieve its signal when starting.

The only way it would bolt up is with a d to b plate. But it's not worth it. And it can be done. Search bar is there for a reason.
