Default Is it possible to throw a manual transmition from '03 accord to '02

How big of a difference would be 0-62mi/h, now my accord is up to 62mi in 7.223 sec.

use the CL type S trans, it's a direct fit (along with axles)

Im going to assume you have the v6 engine, and from what i have gathered the 03+ accord v6 coupe trans along with the 03 cl type s are the same trans. But just as streetx said, there are alot of little things that need to be done, and the wiring is a complete bitch. i talked to redneckdave he is i think the only person on here that has a 3.2l swap, meaning he took an engine from an auto cl and the trans from the 03' cl type s, matted them and put them in his car and that was a wiring hell in it self he said, but he also said that just putting the trans in would be more of a wiring headache seeing as the 6th gen accords (your car) have the engine computer and trans computer into one.

I seriously looked into this but figured that $4000 for a manual trans was not worth it, so instead im getting a wrx (wish honda had an OEM turbo car)

But i have a question to add to all this, wouldnt it be possible to copy the info from the trans computer on the 03 cl type s and replace the info on the 6th gen computer with that info? &lt;----that seems logical, but im not sure hom fesiable it is..
