hi,im new on here and i was just wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction to geting the parts needed for a mannual transmission to fit into an automatic CRX-DEL SOL??
any help much appreciated.

get a transaxle that has vtec and swap your vss over. Then just buy some pedals from teh junkyard, and get the upgraded lsd cv joints, a shifter ****, and a big roll of use the ******* search tool......

 

First of all to anyone else reading this he's from Wales, so they still call the Del Sol a CR-X Del Sol.

Anyways to answer the question:

You will need the following from any 1992-1995 5-speed Civic - look in your junk yards:

Transmission
Speed sensor
Axles
Clutch assembly (buy a new one if you can)
Clutch and brake pedal assemblies
All of the clutch hydraulics from the clutch master cylinder, all the lines, to the slave cylinder
Shift linkage with lever/shifter and ****
Preferrably the console piece too

Then you'll need a custom conversion mount from http://www.hasport.com to properly fit the 5-speed into your chassis. The auto chassis has a completely different welded in passenger side frame rail mount.

The actual labor isn't too difficult, but the tricky part is tricking the automatic shift selector (in the shifter console area) into thinking the car is in neutral. Also you probably won't get the reverse lights working, but who cares, right? i'm sure it's possible, but it isn't easy.

Good luck.
