Yes i just drove 456 miles on one tank and spent 1500$ for a 6 speed tranny, ECU, speedometer, leather boot, cup holder assembly, and a whole buch of buttons. Im gonna be doing the swap asap but I would like to know if anyone else can help me out with finding any more parts or anything at all to help my FYIs... anything. I just want to know how much help can be found in this area lol 07109. Well i just grabbed a big project and hoepfully i can pull this off. Thx guys.

fsttyms1

the 2 best sites for parts are in my 6 speed thread (the one thats open to post in) and joes.

AZN.M3NACE

are you serious with driving 456miles on one tank.. thats just crazy XD.. for the swap u should check out joes thread.. he hasnt been on here in awhile but ill try go find you the link asap

joeman892

haha yea for that trip i got 31.5 mpg. sounds like the car is running pretty efficent. im gonna be heading to this kid Jay's who has a 2000 or 2001 6 speed sawp that he did himself. he is gonna tell me what i else i need, plus he is about 15 min away.

Topher707

on a sort of related subject... i went up to the casino with a few buddies two days ago, and got about 240 miles on half a tank. much better gas mileage w/ cruise control

My TLS is great on the highway. i drove back and forth from VT to NJ to go boarding every weekend for 6 months and never got less then 375 but consistently 400 and a couple of 420s. thats not bad considering the hill climbing in vt and the weather.

good luck with your swap. contact member j83. he has a shop in fort lee and he has done swaps before. he did it on his own tl.

joeman892

yea the kid is great, i was just there about an hour ago. he seems to be very precise with his work, i took a ride in his car as well and i was very impressed. soon he will be swapping for me.

JMAL

dudes good his car is ridic

Ill have the write up on Jay and his shop later.

JMAL

and..... how does it drive?

joeman892

Oh man, it drives AWSOME!! it feels soo much more powerful, and the car revs insane lol. It redlines somewhere around 7100 i am told, but i havent felt a limiter, some say max hp is around 7500. The thing i love the most is that even at like 60 mph in 6th just feathering the throttle gives u acceleration. This is definently worth it. Plus Jay did such a good job with making everything look just like it belongs there. If anyone is in the area and wants anything done to their car, wiring, swap, anything if u go on 46 east in NJ towards the GWB you will see his shop, if anyone wants directions from me just send me a message.

JMAL

i saw you car there one time when i stopped to say whats up to him. congrats man.

fsttyms1

limiter is 7100. its very easy to hit it in first. Peak is before7500. HP actually starts falling after 6500ish

Congrats. Any more information you can provide is appreciated by those of us with this swap in mind! Places to find parts, and maybe even more price breakdowns. I know Kris gave us lots of info, but more info never hurt anyone.

seanmcd

Wow, I would consider driving up there from SC if my tranny actually dies... (/me runs and knocks on a lot of wood). I would LOVE a six speed manual in this car.

What are the drawbacks to those of you that have done this (if any) ? What's the part # or from what car is that tranny? (i understand there's a lot more to just getting the tranny after reading what's his name's swap thread)

fsttyms1

I havent found a single drawback. I only wish i had dont this mod back after my 2nd failure

How much did it cost you for the whole swap completely?

desired_speeds

wow, very nice! I noticed you now have 4 seat heater buttons. lol

mcflyguy24

Congrats on the 6-speed swap! If my tranny goes out of warranty this will be my next mod for sure. Plus the guy you used is right over in Jersey, huh?

This will complete your conversion and will be truly one of a kind. https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...=363786&page=3

I have done 580 Miles on a single tank of gas.
I drove from Michigan to Maryland, it was very stressful to keep strictly at 66mph

Fossil_TL

Wow, I would really love to convert my auto to 6 Speed stick too with my car.
The engine is rock solid, I've only ever used mobil 1 synthetic since I got it, so it'll last forever.

I was thinking to trade in my car when it reaches 100,000 miles, and that is approaching real fast.

Please let us know how much is the total cost and how much labor cost

Lo Pan

if youre planning to do a 6 speed swap on a tl-p. should you just throw in the 3.5 while youre at it? i mean its cost efficient right? or is it a whole separate ordeal.

Bobster

3.5 + type S intake + 6MT = hotness........
ps............use the 01-02 MDX engine.

myTaLizaS3.2

I took at the list of parts needed if you wanted to swap from auto to manual and have a TL-S already. Around 2g's for parts, without the tranny or ecu and installation. So i'm guessing it'll be from 4 to 5g's installed. Reach deep into your pockets guys! Would love for the 6 spd... but that's too damaging.

joeman892

Hey guys i forgot about this link lol, with school and stuff and trying to part out the automatic parts on the black market. Ok for all of you people that want to know the price for parts... it was around 5k. The labor was separate. I believe i posted a parts list somewhere, and you will see how many things that you have to buy. It is an impressive list, basically i have a CL-s now lol, or at least my car thinks so. But i did keep my engine, just changed about everything else. If anyone has more questions i will be keeping an eye on this now. Ohh and my car IS dropped.. cant tell lol H&R sports. I just need an exhaust.... apexi wsII preferably, but cant find one for a good price anymore.
