Default using accord for auto to manual swap?

Hey guys...well, i've been accumulating parts over the past couple of months from a '91 accord in the local junkyard...i have just about everything out of it except the clutch pedal and the axle...my question is (now that ive raped just about everything out of it) what can i use and can i not use? will the hard clutch lines work? or the clutch pedal...or anythig else? if everything will swap in, it'll make my life a BILLION times easier

well first off, the gear ratios in that transmission are going to be a bit longer then the prelude ones, it will work, just wont perform quite as well.

im fairly sure the pedal wont work, it will physically fit in the car but im fairly sure the pedal sits very high compared to the prelude one.

the clutch line will most likly work, just may have to bend it in a few spots.

im pretty sure the shifter will bolt in perfectly.

the axles i have no idea, i'd guess since there different engines the intermediate shaft will not work, but give it a try first.

-good luck man

i gotta be honest i'm not really looking for performance...i need this car to get me through college and my auto tranny is crappin the bed...

man thats too bad, i was really hoping the pedal assembly would work...i cant find a clutch pedal assembly for the prelude ANYWHERE =/

im not 100% if the 91 will or wont work, but i used a 94 accord clutch pedal for my swap and it sat about 3 inches higher then the rest of the pedals.

it can still be used, i just cut a wedge out of the pedal arm and re-welded it together so it sat at the correct angle and height.

give it a try, ya never know it may work perfect.
