I have an auto, too, and frankly I'm ready to move on. I did find a shop in MD that would do a JDM B20 swap + manual swap for $2300-2500. I have just about all the necessary parts, though, so I'm paying a lot for labor. But it's worth investigating.

So far my tranny has held up pretty well. For the street, I am quite happy with how fast & responsive the car has become.

you can throw a vtec head on it too. youre going to spend the same amount of money hooking them up. So, either way. basically, it comes down to this.
DO WANT MANUAL OR NOT???
