I have a question for all you technical gurus out there. I currently have a Eunos Presso which has an automatic transmission, what I would like to know is is it possible/how hard to swap the automatic transmission to a manual transmission. The reason for this is because I want to swap the engine for the MX-6 in the near future.<P>Any help would be greatly appreciated.<P>Thanks<P>Sean <BR>UK

You're not going to find a junked RSX type S anytime soon, and a factory tranny is probably 3k, so not really realistic. [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]

has anyone ever done a manual tranny swap to their MX-3? i'm thinking about doing one in the near future, but is it more difficult than an engine swap? if it's easier, i guess i'm going to replace my AUTO transmission because driving an auto is really boring...so any info is appreciated. :cool:

I believe Quaife offers a six speed FWD sequential(!!!!) shift tranny. It's about 16K however. It can handle that turboed KLZE engine HP though!
