Default RSX-S 6-speed tranny in an EP3?

After searching for weeks through individal threads and the archives of this site, I still have no idea what is required to make the RSX-S 6-speed work with the shifter mechanism in the EP3. My father and I are in the midst of a K24 block with S-head and tranny + bolt-ons, etc. build and he's wanting to put it in an EP3 and use it as his daily driver, but we'll need to know "little" things like this to make it an OEM quality install.

That said, I guess I also have a Type-S shortblock and a K24 Accord head with 9800 miles and 3000 miles on them, respectively, to sell =p.

Thanks in advance, fellas.

cut some of the plastic from the cover to accomodate the new place for reverse.

Are you serious? That's all there is to it or you're just assuming that's all there is to it . Tell me one way or another and we're golden.

Thanks a lot, man.

No. You remove the plastic from one of the shifter arms. That is all there is to it. I have done it myself.
