Ok so my 1999 Acura TL has 125,000 miles. The stock tranny does its job but whens its cold it slips a bit. when warmed up its fine. I plan on keeping the car for a while because i got a GREAT deal on it (salvage vehicle because it was abandoned) and what ever money i put into it is what i would have spent on a different car. but to my question, if i bought a wrecked or salvaged accord or cl with good 6 speed tranny would i have all the parts i needed to do the swap or no?

u would have all the parts, just try and not to get one hit from the front, the blocks crack easily from what ive seen at auctions.

rajca are you saying to do the 6-speed swap i couldnt use my stock engine from my tl?

fsttyms1

well if you found a wrecked CL-6 why wouldnt you get the better engine to go with the trans. Yes you can use your motor but you will need to run the modules to make it work.

if im using TL type S engine with richie v6 module do i need to change the cam pulley??

fsttyms1

if your using the modules you dont need to change any thing out.

Kris, check the price on those sensors for the full conversion.. they went WAY down.

I saw that 500 dollar sensor is no longer that any more. Its well under 100 It should never have been that expensive to begin with

yep.. thinking about finishing the swap and making it a full conversion

ends up being just a little bit more expensive than an RV6 harness. but you gotta do all that engine work..
