my friend has a 99 accord, ex i believe with the sohc vtec, anyway he wants me to do a 5 speed conversion and ive never worked on an accord before so im not sure what i need to look for as far as what years of accords are compatable for parts such as pedals shifter cables tranny etc....what generation is that and what year range should i look up when i search for these parts....also if anyone has any of this stuff please let me know....thanx
Chris

do a search, some guy on here did it, ive done it on a 96 but they have different wiring so i couldnt tell you that part

 

i think his name is turbowa or something along those lines.

 

for right now i just want to knw what pedals to get...what year range does a 99 fall in????

 

pretty obvious.. get parts off a car same as yours but manual.. 6th gen 5spd

 

98-02 are 6gen accords. You can pick up either a H22, H23, F22, or F23 manual tranny. I'm actually waiting for a 6gen full write up too. 6gens have a speedo problem when swapping over but I know a guy who figured it out, and I'm still waiting for him to do a complete write up.

 

thanx alot fot the info and can u please forward me that write up once u get it, id really appreciate it, also i have a shifter and cables from a JDM H22 swap will those work for this swap?

 

you can pretty much use the 4th and 5th gen write ups for the mechanical part, just use 6th gen parts. but for the wiring i got no clue. it was easy on my obdI accord.

 

hey wats up man. i have a 2001 accord coupe and i swapped in a 03 CL-S engine with 6spd tranny, so i have basically everything from the firewall forward. my stock accord engine is a 2001 F23A4 with 5spd tranny. everything is in perfect working condition. perfect for a 5spd swap. let me know.

 

i got my 4cyl gauges as well as spare oem v6 gauges to work with the CL-S swap

 

what else do i have to wire except the reverse lights?

Off the top of my head:
VSS
You'll need to find neutral with the auto gear shifter first... There's something you need to do with that, but I can't remember. Turbowa knows... There was a recent thread where he desribed what needed to be done.
I'm drawing a blank for the rest...

 

does anyone know what the obd2 accord ecu number is?? 5 speed, also does anyone have one for sale?

 

will the pedals from a 94-97 work???

 

I have completed this swap. To do it correctly including the wiring you better have your big boy pants on. The wiring is a pain in the ***. I need to get some time after work to do a write up. The pedals MUST be from a 98-02 accord 5spd. The pass. side mount to the frame is a bolt on instead of weld like the 5th gens. To get the car in nutral its under the hood at the tranny range switch.

To get the VSS working you will need to run all there wires and source a conector for the sensor. The engine wiring harness has to be re-wiried, theres a plug at the ecu that needs re-pinned, and you have to add a wire to the pass. side multi plex unit/fuse box and re-pin a connector over there too. Your first step to getting all the wiring figured out is to buy a helms ETM. This will be your bible. Any one wanting to try this swap I STRONGLY urge you to buy this. It is damn near imppossible with out it.

I'm almost ready to pay you OT so you can stay after work and make a full write up. Everything from wire colors and pictures! HAHAHA

 

awesome thanks for this info and thanks in advance for any additional....your help is very appreciated, and if u could do a good write up that would be totally sick.....Chris

 

sure, do you go AIM? you can message me and i can send you some pics.

 

I'll see if I can get the write up done in the next couple of weeks. I may have some time to startit to night. The machanical aspect is fairly easy. Its the electrical thats a bitch.

 

Which shifter cables are longer? preludes or accords?

 

no i dont have aim but u can email them to me slic187@aol.com

He's a really busy guy, but I'm about to get both the haynes and ETM books so maybe I can do a write up before I even do the swap??? He said he'll walk me through it via the books.
