what's up, ok, you'll need shift limkage, man. trans., clutch m/c, clutch hard lines, clutch pedal set(clutch and brake are one unit), manual ECU, manual motor mouonts, clutch slave cylinder, short throw, manual console, Si gaugecluster, manual throttlecable, 3 quarts honda manual tranny fluid, manual flywheel, clutch set(of your choice) and pilot bearing. that should be all you need todo the swap into your '98 Civic EX and shift away. . . . .

I have no intention of trash talking, but you migh consider another option.Just keep saving your money and put in a B16, it is cheap, in my opinion easier than swaping the transmission. and the performance gains are far greater than doing a 5speed tranny.

Just a thought

I beg to differ, honda auto trannies suck my arse. If you have an auto, the best thing to do is swap in a manual. Use that as a starting point, then you can swap an engine.
