So I'm new on here and just was look for information just cracked a whole in my transmission last night and wondering what's the pros and cons on 6 speed swapping the car guy has the whole swap with low miles not to sure just wanted to know what you guys think please let me know thank you

 

with the lack of punctuation, it made your run on sentence VERY hard to read.....

who is the guy?
and he already has a swap?
or he has a donor car?
i dont understand

 

I'm on the Acura forum on Facebook. And a dude in ny says he has the whole swap but it's still in the car

 

did he swap it? or does he has a six speed donor car? meaning his car is six speed from the factory.

 

He has a 6 speed donor car

 

^might as well buy the car from him, if his is six speed already, just buy it and drive it.

 

He just reply and said car is wrecked

 

^buy the wrecked car and fix it up!
lol

or just buy a six speed.

these cars are fairly cheap!! like 6 grand could get you an awesome six speed TL.

it probably would cost somewhere in the same neighborhood to swap!
a couple grand for parts and then a couple grand for labor....

 

Yeah but I still own on my car now

 

Ii'm still making payments on my car

 

So if you didn't get it from the previous responses.....it will cost you just about as much to properly do a swap as it would to go buy another car. There are some that have made the swap successfully...there are some that were not quite so successful.

 

that's a tough spot to be in! Your best bet for saving money is just to swap an accord v6 trans in if your car is a 2004-2006 for around $800 for the trans plus labor.

If you want the 6MT option, it's going to cost a bit more for the whole swap bc you'll have to swap out the knuckles, brakes, gauge cluster, etc. At least 2K in my opinion.
