it was an AE86.

with 9500 bux in your hand you can swap an h22, new internals, port & polish. even turbo. and still have money left over. The F20c swap will not be worth all the trouble. trust me.

If you aren't going to buy that engine then let me know through PM and I will buy the engine and pay for shipping to my house.

sell your car. its is not worth doing an auto to manual conversion on such a new car. sell it while its new and get a car thats already 5spd and start off with a better platform.

If you can get the car cheap than I would buy it. You could do a full frame conversion. I mean tear your accord all the way down to the frame like your building a race car. If your think of it like this and have good connections then it wouldn't be that bad on the wallet. Just time consuming. For the rear end I'd recommend going to a 4 link suspension since this would be the easiest to setup and build. Having custom drive shafts made. I don't really think it would be that hard, but it all depends on your knowledge and tear down of a car.

Not so easy with a unibody design...you have no frame to take it down to.

To do this you would have to build a frame to mount the body onto and while building the frame you do the 4link etc. at that time.
