My boy Jae and his crew did it again, finished another 6spd swap this time on a Type S. Such a clean pretty job and again no codes

Damn that looks nice! What's the cost, and how long did it take?

CL Platano

Took a little while gathering all the parts and stuff but once it was here about 1 week

Chanrith

Man, you guys should just provide that swap as a service to AZ. If my wife didn't drive my TL-S as well I'd definitely think about swapping to 6 speed.

I think I might start going to the local Pick & Pull's and start scrapping together all the various parts for this, b/c I am definitely doing this.

03bl AC k CL

make mine the 3rd swap in jersey :-)

ChrisQ1980

Very nice. I haven't seen it done on a TL-S yet. Was it easy putting it together as far as the wire harness? I think I remember Kris saying it would be a little less involved on a TL-S compared to a TL-P swapping it to make it a TL-S.

JpnSamurai

damn... sick

SiCrew

yea it definitely came out great, looks like it came like that from the factory...i'm still waiting for my ride in it lol...maybe later this week he said he'll take me 4 a spin...and yea big mike, the lab is a shop over in Fort Lee, and Jae is the Acura specialist who you'll usually see working on some cl/tl at the shop...they have good prices/reliable work...anyways man i can't get over how clean and fresh it looked in person...awesome stuff!

godfather2

no cel's, now thats an accomplishment

CL Platano

Whats good Mike long time no see..Like SiCrew said The Lab is our boy Jae's shop in Ft. Lee. Prices are pretty reasonable, a few of us like NJZPrettyboy, SiCrew and myself only let Jae touch our rides.


-Of course its much easier to do the 6spd swap on a Type S engine but from what I understand it will bolt up to a TL-P also. Kris's write up should answer most questions guys have on the swap.

Nice work......didn't someone else do the swap and had a s/c also ?

CL Platano

When My tranny goes out. I'm doing a 3.5 swap with TYPE S heads and 6 speed tranny. and I'll pay whatever the heck I have to pay to get it into my TL. I'll keep you guys in mind.

Clean swap. & AZ represent!!!!!

99TL-PNBP

looks sick. im in jersey too. if he knows how to do it he should start doing it as a service. im sure ppl would pay a premium on az for someone to do swaps like that

So what cost for installed 6speed swap??

Autoworks

good work!!

SiCrew

Sup dude. Well to answer your question, it really depends on how much the parts cost. If you can find a good deal like from a salvage yard and get a good price on the 6 speed cl-s tranny, than you have your biggest chunk there. Also, getting good prices or connections on the other parts (accessories / trim pieces / sensor / and all the other parts) will really help to cut costs. Check out Kris's thread on what's needed in terms of parts for a detailed list. I would estimate anywhere between 3-4k for a ballpark estimate. Again, that's just an estimate. It really depends on how much you get your parts for. Hope that helps

MegaKillTron

I guess it's free.

JPTL-S

Nice job gents

Danm Thas Crazy Wish I Can Do That With My Type S

TLsu

Will someone post pics of Jae's car? It sounds sick...what other mods does he have? Isn't it NBP ?

03bl AC k CL

plat.. i was wonderin how much this costs too... im local n already have a type s so how much would swapping trannys cost??? would love to be one of the projects of ur boy n his crew in the near future

CL Platano

There isnt a set price, it depends on the tranny you find. It averages 3-4k for the swap

Nothing special about Jae's car no rims just dropped on H&R Springs and no kit. His thing is performance not cosmetics.
