6 Speed man? J32A1 V-tec. availability?

Anyone know how rare the 6 speed boxes and the 3.2 v-tec motors are?

Is there much difference between the 95 an 97 engine bay setups?

As you can see the engines are mounted completely different. It wont work.

What you CAN do, is get a 5 or 6 speed manual from a Legend. THAT will work.

C32A5. Which year and version is that, looks very similar to my engine. Is that a Legend? How rare are those 6 speed legends?

It's very sad they moved to a transverse setup.

It is a Legend. Its either a 94 - 95 GS Sedan or a 93 - 95 LS coupe, it was also called the Type II motor. It has 230 hp and was only sold in the US and Canada.

Our TL motor is a C32A6 with 200 hp.
