quaife supposedly makes them....but they are veryyyy expensive ive heard over $10k. So imo if you really want a 6 speed honda/acura buy an s2000 or rsx type s.

why do you want a 6th gear for a prelude? is it for highway cruising?

if so, why not install an accord 5th gear. or get a jdm tranny which has the tallest 5th gear.

or like everyone else, buy another car.

its hard to add stuff to an engine/tranny designed well before 1991. esp since there isn't much else compatible with it

If your gonna go 6spd, do the entire K swap. It would cost about the same but the results would be much nicer

This has been covered a million times.

Waste of money.
