i have a 89 civic HB DX.. and the tranny has being pissin me off.. so.. i was plannin on swaping the tranny out to a 5 speed .. any tips on what i need other than the tranny and shift links pedal set..????

 

clutch master cylinder, and a bunch of other ****, not quite sure on this one.

 

i don;t think so dude.. cuz that gen runs on a cable right..... the only think i'm un sure about is the neutral switch... VERY UNSURE.. need a honda god here..

u right...i was thinking he had a car with a hydro tranny, my bad.

 

i just swapped mine for a manual all i did for the neutral switch is left it in park-no problems...hardest part was doin the pedals-its a little small under there....

 

yea.. so what was all the things that ya need for the swap..???

 

all i used were the pedals,clutch cable,and linkages,oh also a shifter boot and a lil sheet metal to cover the holes fron the mounting bracket for the auto shifter

 

I would imagine that there are some mounting problems associated with the civic that was originally automatic

Everything will bolt up and you need to drill a hole for the clutch cable to go through.

 

so nothing is wrong as far as wiring or anything like that.. i wouldn't have to mess wit the ECU..??? cuz i have most of the stuff.except for the the linkage that holds the shifter... not the shift link it self...

 

yes you will need a new ECU..urs is programmed for an auto tranny, not a manual tranny, you have to get an ecu for a maual tranny

 

so would a ECU that came outta civic that was runnin a 5 speed be good enough..????? it'll plug right up..

 

it should, but dont quote me on that.

I did this a few years ago when I had my ZC in my EF.

 

no u dont have to drill the hole is already there....yes u can use your stock ecu but u will have a tranny code-u have to drop the rear crossmember to move the rear mount over about an inch the holes are already there but its a pain to get to the only wiring u have to do is for the neutral safety switch and for the reverse lights

 

Hey i have the pedals if u need them.

yea.. mine dosen't have a hole eiether.. yupp yupp.. so yupp .. man.. its gonna suck having to fvck wit the wiring...

 

that sucks mine had the hole.....guess i was lucky
