I Roll With 5 Speeds

[Szady]

Finally, after exactly one month, my car is alive. After alot of blood, sweat, and frustration I now have 5 speeds. Heres a list of updates since Ive last posted anything.

AEM Dry-Flow Filter
Exedy OEM Spec Clutch kit
JDM D15b Vtec Intake Manifold & throttle body
D16z6 injectors
OBD1 Conversion - P28 ECU
Authentic CTR shift knob
Unknown dual bend short shifter

Anywho, on with the pictures. (And yes, I know my drivers side parking light is out. Got a loose wire somewhere, and have yet to pin-point it.)

NEW Interior Pic:

Major thanks go out to Petey Pete for comming down for a weekend to help out. But mainly, I wanna thank my wife, Bristie for helping, and putting up with me.

woah that is sweet man! Need to clean up that interior

Boost!

 

[Evan.]

damn that interior is stripped

Love the conversion mang. Looks real good overall. I bet its kind of tough to show off an auto-manual conversion, not as easy as an exterior modification or such.

 

[falcon]

cool.

Looks freaking amazing bro..! Bristie is a soldier for putting up with us over that weekend and everything. You got a A+ Girl man..!

I'ma see if I can make it up the first weekend in december!!

Yea, the interior is dirty as hell. That pic was a "progress" picture during the swap. All I need is carpet, and I have a full interior. Watch for boost come Spring.

Yea, the only way to really show it off is to look at the shifter, and the actual tranny itself. Any educated Honda person knows the difference in looks of a auto tranny compared to a 5spd tranny.

Yea, shes crazy for putting up us. Let alone me by myself. Shes the one who keeps me motivated when s**t goes wrong. I seriously wouldnt be here right now w/out her.

congrats man! good to hear its finally done and working..now the question is...how awesome is it? with myself, i will never go back to an automatic..

 

[Silver Bullet]

how does it feel?
and...oh yea......im next for the conversion

Words cant describe how awesome it is. The only time it sucks driving a manual, is when in heavy traffic. Other than that, manual is the way to be.

And its wierd now, but the D15b intake manifold is so much more free flowing than the Y7 manifold. The car feels SO much more quicker than before...

hah hell yea man. its weird with my car, the first time i pulled it out of my driveway and drove it down the street i couldnt believe how different the car sounded- the exhaust sounded amazinnngg and eventually when i got on it more after i broke my clutch in the intake/motor is alot louder too..maybe the 5spd mani flows better than the auto one? i dunno but i love it. im thinkin about a swap in the spring now...

 

[Szady]

Yea, my exhaust is SO much louder now. Dunno how, or why...but I dont care.

 

[EK|B]

Dude you need to get the CTR shift boot now!

 

[iOn]

Good work
