2001 Accord 2.3 coupe auto to 5 speed manual conversion
Ok, so I have what I thought to be all the necessary parts for the 5-speed swap but I'm having a little confusion of some certain things. I'd like some info from anyone with experience with this model year because I don't know exactly what all needs to be done regarding the motor/tranny mounts.
Below are links to the oem parts diagrams for the mounts. I'm kind of confused because I didn't think all the mounts had to change, I had read somewhere that it was just the front right and the tranny mount itself, but there are different part numbers on all of the mounts AND brackets for the most part. The engine side mount is the same, but the RR mount, FR mount, rear and front brackets are all different. Do these actually need to be changed out as well? I don't understand why the engine mounts would be any different but if anyone has done this swap, please let me know. On the bright side, if I do need all new mounts, the engine mounting for the MT version looks a LOT simpler, but still that's a lot of parts to buy
(and I just replaced the FR motor mount because it was completely shot, damn)
Also, I read that the passenger side half shaft is different, but not the driver's side. Can anyone confirm this?

Did you read the Offical 6th gen auto to 5spd swap guide in the Accord FAQ?
I'm pretty sure I just saw the answers to your questions in there.
