My 2001 CL Type S 6 M/T (work in progress)
I've been a member for a little while and I normally browse this site for research and ideas. Well I think its about time I post up a few pictures of my work in progress. Im still in the process of changing out the interior from tan to black.
I purchased this car for $3200 with a harsh shifting transmission last year in June with the intention of converting it to a 6 speed. The mileage was 113k miles.
This is my 2nd 6 speed swap that I have done.
The first was my J32A2 swapped 99 Accord Coupe pictured right below

Thanks
This time around I decided to do it the right way. I eneded up purcahsing the 03 CLS6 ecu, engine harness, front cam gear, cam gear plate, cam sensor, carnk sensor, crank gear, LOL everything that I read on the write up, I also had to change my dash A plug and convert it to the D plug that the 03 CLS6 uses. No check engine light, reverse works, tilt mirror works, automatic seat works. Lots of hours invested in this.
But one good thing is that I am Honda Technician at Checkered Flag Honda in Norfolk Virginia.
Reading schematics wasnt too bad. I printed lots of pages out of the service manuals from the Acura Dealer.

What else do you need to finish the interior swap? I'm picking up a wrecked 01 cl-s auto soon and I will be parting it out. It has black interior. I replied in my thread about what you said too.

Hmmm I still need all the seats, door panels, inside quarter panels, inside rear deck, armrest, headliner, c pillars, seat belts, lol almost everything.
Let me put it this way the only things I have is the Dash (out of a TL) and the carpet.

I missed this thread somehow.
Welcome! We met during the summer, I was driving the blue Accord. We talked a bit about the 6MT swap you were doing.
PS - Nspec, that is an H series.

Wow that's rad. Now that you mention it, I just remembered that he gave the red CL to his brother. He still maintains it for him though. I actually just sent him a PM asking when he'll update the thread. Doubt I'll get a PM back from him for a while though

Nice progress sir! I miss my ABP CL-S. I should have kept it and swapped a 6-speed in.
Those TSX V6 wheels look great on your car. Keep them on there!
