By switch do you mean switch cars or just the transmission?

not on the tsx.

too many gremlins to deal with and too many parts to have to collect. much easier to trade it in.

Doable but not practical and can get very expensive. Best to trade her in for a manual.

i think it would be better in the long run to keep the automatic car and next time get manual.

It's possible (and has been done before). However, it's better just to trade-in the car and buy one with a MT. The only reason why it'd be worth a transmission swap is that you've done so many mods on the car, or if it has alot of sentimental value.

No, sell your auto and buy a manual. It'll be cheaper, easier, less problematic and have a better resale value.
