    Default Tranny Swap Suggestions? Anyone know a good place?

    I have a clean 92 Si Prelude and I want to do an auto>manny swap on it. I live in N Georgia and there aren't any good shops up here. Anyone have any suggestions about where I can get it done by someone who is good and trustworthy?

    Grazie in advance.

    It looks like that's how it's gonna have to be. It will be a huge pain in the ass and take forever but I can find any reputable peeps to do it. I guess the only person I can trust is my own damn self. Thanks though.

    Thanks though.

    It's not too bad I did it on my 96 accord by myself. The holes for the clutch master cyl are already indented under the carpet. If the linkage is like the accord then thats very easy too. You have to drill a new hole on you trans mount to keep the motor level but other than that it's just pullin one out and bolting the other in. You might have to persuade the pedals a little. But this was an accord idk how similar it is.

    I don't have a lift and have a very limited supply of air-tools. I have a driveway and a buddy with a building. Other than that I don't have much. But it's encouraging to know that you can do a swap in 5hrs. It took me that long to put on 1pc headlights. Well, three... but still. I'm slooow.

    Congrats on the speedy swap though, that's damn impressive.
