    Cool conversion list

    hey guys i need a little help here. i have a 96 accord lx and my trans went out. ao instead of spending money on another automatic i thought about just swappin it out for a five speed. i need to know exactly what all i need to do this conversion. new mounts? change out ecu? will my cv axles fit in the 5-speed. also are these all hydraulic or cable clutch linkage? do i have to change out my ecm since the tcm is built in to it? my cars obd2 but i have an obd1 ecm in my parts car.(thats where my recent trans came out of) anyways help would be greatly appreciated! also i need a doner car or if someone has a trans or conversion parts then let me know. thanks

    Off the top of my head so others feel free to add.
    -Trans mount (not sure which one)
    -Accord manual pedal assembly
    -clutch master cylinder
    -hard clutch lines
    -clutch slave cylinder
    -clutch
    -shift linkage which are cable
    -shift boot
    -shift knob
    -ditch the TCU from the automatic
    ****I believe you may be able to use the manual parts from the 92-96 Prelude as well since engine and trans were identical.
