If you are going to the trouble anyway, put the Type-S motor in it...

-Tranny
-Mounts (possibly)
-New wiring harness
-Shifter
-ECU

As stated above, it's not really worth it. It would be more worth while to do the Type-S swap, or Type-S swap with 6spd MT.

like others have stated, either keep it now and save your money's worth or invest in a J32a2 with the CL 6 speed transmission.

I know someone with a CL-s tranny on his 99. Dealer was willing to do it when he asked after his 4-speed blew.

Very possible. Worth it at all? Definitely not. The 5-speed auto is, if anything, even less reliable than the 4-speed. Even if you have the money, why?

The reason why is because i have a 5 speed tranny i was gonna get a rebuild kit for to beef it up n make it a little stronger but im curious now u guys are saying that 6 speed cl type s tranny is it automatic w ss like the all the tl trannys or are u guys talkin bout a six speed manual? cause i wont hate to have to resort to a manual on my luxury car
