Default AT --> MT and S/C to RHD Coupe

Hi All

have a chance grab a RHD bargain 99 3l v6 Coupe with broken gearbox. Just wondering will following mods be available to do ...

1. AT to - MT conversion using some USDM Accord gearbox , will it work ( if yes, than what g/box would you suggest ? )

2 also looking for s/c upgrade (comptech probably) will it fit on RHD (i live in UK) car ? tried to compare LHD and RHD pics - looks like all OK.
3. rest of internals should be OK i think

thanks in advance

1) pain in the *** search as it has been done 2 times
2) look at the motor codes and check on the SC compatibility
3) not a question?

Yep no problem, it's why people can do RHD conversions here in the US.

No need to swap the motors, just the firewall.
