I dont know if the civic eg kart boy kit for the k20 swap will work, you might need one of those circuit hero shifter extensions but with the eg gray center console I think it would look alot cleaner and you can get them in gray

Good choice...the first gen odyssey and the OG Toyota Jihad-Mobile Van are two I would like to REALLY work over sometime...


Any room under the hump to cut and drop the shifter console down?

Mk2 VW shift boot? (They are about the right size)

Custom fur boot stitched to size and mounted to the floor using a custom trim ring?

....I would have to get a massive, long shifter for something like this....

Ever thought of trying to do the EP3 or Element console shifter into the Ody. That would look pretty wicked.

^ Good idea...

Mount the shifter in the stock radio position, and make a custom mount for the radio in the upper glove box.

Raising this back from the dead. I'm interested in doing a manual swap. How did you work the pedal assembly?

awesome. Are they made to fit the odyssey? or did you have to do some modifications to the rails and seat to get them in?

I modified the stock brake-pedal assembly for the Odyssey, and also modified a Prelude clutch-pedal assembly to put the pedals in the correct position. It also required drilling out an existing hole in the fire-wall to make it larger, along with the two mounting holes for the clutch-master cylinder. Then I make the shifter-box so you can mount the stock Prelude/Accord shifting mechanism inside the car. Everything else is pretty much like doing an auto-to-stick swap on an Accord, save for a few details. I've done two vans so far, am working on a third, and I've made parts for two customers. If this is something you want to do then PM me, and I can supply the fab-parts. Everything else you can get from a junk-yard.

You could try making it connect to the bottom console like Joe(overboostin)did on his conversion.I really want to convert my Ody to stick.Do you have any hook-ups on that and how much it would cost me?I don't mind driving 2 hours to get there.
