That conversion is easy man all you have to have is all the parts. I converted my Ek to a manuel like 2weeks ago. I put a B18C1 with Type R Tranny. The Job took a day and half but if your just changing the tranny it should take you a day. You need the manuel tranny,shift linkage, the manuel pedal, n ur goin to need the line that runs from the pedal to the tranny the name slip my mind but if you go to urbanracer.com and post up that u need the parts from auto to manuel u'll get quick replys the pieces shouldn't run you over $175.00. After you've the complete swap all ur gonna have to do is rewire some wires so u can take out your key and for the reverse lights.
