6th Gen A/T to M/T Swap. The other link replace the 5th gen parts with 6th Gen and your GOOD to go.

I priced out a F23A1 AT and its gonna cost me like 800$ + Shipping

So far into my 5 speed swap I got close to that or even more..

- Picked up a F23A1 MT Tranny, MT Pedals Assembly, Tranny Mount, Shifter w/ cables. 175$
- Picked up a Exedy Stage 1 Clutch with Pressure Plate ( rated for 300 HP ) and a Light weight flywheel for 300$
- Clutch Master And Slave Cylinder was like 100$
- New Axles cost me like 150$ Used axle with 1/2 shaft was 100$
- ECU from a 99 MT accord was 125$
- I still need M/T Motor Mounts and Clutch Hose. Thats gonna be another 200$
- Then to get it installed 400$
- Then you need a different starter, I was given one.

So I think your better off just buying a new tranny.
