The 6 speed tranny will go in with some modifications. I know that hoffhiness did the swap, but it ended up costing him a couple of thousand dollars, maybe more. Personally I don't know if it is worth it unless you are trying to do major mods like he was.

It's costly, but you can put in the 6-speed from the CL-S.

The new Generation Accord Coupe V-6 now has a 6-speed that bolts onto the j30.

Good luck finding one!

Yes the 6speed should work, as stated by dust. Hoffhines has done the swap. Last I remember he broke an axle. (I think) If so Hoff is it possible to swap in the cls axles??? What did you end up doing? And what exactly was needed to mate the 6spd? Oh and Dust in another post I read your planning on upgrading your axles. If so, what axles are you goin to use? Thanks for any info..

That thought actually crossed my mind before I posted my question. I figured that if someone wanted it bad enough they could've imported them from another market (like JDM) if it were available else where.
