6 speed shortcut
Ive done alot of searching many many threads. just tired of reading these long threads. theres alot of people here that know what fits on our cars. just wish they can make a easy list of what it is.
for example
engines:
honda odyssey 03
-j35xxx (parts list link) (thread 1) (thread 2)
-j32xxx (parts list link) (thread 1) (thread 2) (thread 3)
acura rl 03
-j35xxx (parts list link) (thread 1)
acura cl 03
-j32xxx (parts list link) (thread 1) (thread 2)
transmission:
acura cl 03
-6sp m (parts list link) (thread 1) (thread2)
acura cl 99-03
-auto (parts list link) (thread 1) (thread2)
^^example only
with links near by to threads talking about that specific engine or tranny maybe. parts mandatory to make the swap since most are not plug n play. just throwing an idea out there.
i would make it if i had the knowledge some do.
for example
engines:
honda odyssey 03
-j35xxx (parts list link) (thread 1) (thread 2)
-j32xxx (parts list link) (thread 1) (thread 2) (thread 3)
acura rl 03
-j35xxx (parts list link) (thread 1)
acura cl 03
-j32xxx (parts list link) (thread 1) (thread 2)
transmission:
acura cl 03
-6sp m (parts list link) (thread 1) (thread2)
acura cl 99-03
-auto (parts list link) (thread 1) (thread2)

Probably have to make more of a matrix instead of just a list.......Different engines across the X axis and then parts compatibility down the y axis. Wish I could help out with that one too. Be a nice reference for everyone...

We have hundreds of people asking everyday about swaps that it's getting very hard to cipher through these forums.
There are several threads linked in our DIY FYI.
Let me find some time to PM you info. What exactly is it that you want to know? Let's find a better way to consolidate everything.

I've learned more than what I can handle from my friend Paul (NVA-AV6) and he's passed on a great deal of knowledge to me. This forum and the "other" forum has as well.
Let me cook up a list.

Engines that fit have been listed (in many threads) and tell what is needed for making a 3.5 at the same time. I should go thru and update what can be used as well with modification. These are the models of engines that fit the trans and that we can use (other model J engines can fit trans but modifications need to be made like swapping heads adding spacers etc)
https://acurazine.com/forums/showpos...00&postcount=7
The search button works for this as well
this just a parts list with engine codes and such
here is more to chew on
J30A1/J30A1
advantage: no modification needed.
disadvantage: no torque until turbo/sc kicks in.
J30A1/J32A2
advantage: mid-range and top-end power
disadvantage: J30A1 pistons have to be modified to fit large J32A2 (intake) valves.
Not much torque until turbo/sc kicks in.
J32A2/J32A2
advantage: no modification needed, mid-range, top-end power.
disadvantage: torque is still ok but better than J30A1
J35A*/J30A1
advantage: no modifications needed, great torque, nice mid-range
disadvantage: top-end power
J35A*/J32A2
advantage: great entire powerband and especially torque.
disadvantage:
Need RL pistons.
UPDATE (6/23/2005)
There are also couple options:
Option 1
With '01 or '02 Odyssey complete block (crank/rods/pistons) it is required to purchase 2005 Acura RL pistons
(new set $50 each) This is a best option still since these pistons have clearance for large 36mm J32A2 (intake)
valves thus no modification needed. Despite the fact they have higher 11.0:1 CR still even supercharger can be
used here with low boost up to 7psi intercooled (assuming safe AFR). In addition, if 11:1 CR is too high for you,
you can use '03 CL-S pistons with 10.5:1 CR.
Option 2
'01-03 J32A2 block (CL-S)
Required to purchase the following:
'02-'04 Odyssey (crankshaft)
Product No. 368270 or
Honda part #13310-PGK-A00 $367.32
'02-'04 Odyssey (connecting rod)
Product No. 368269 or
Honda part #13210-PGK-A00 $79.48 each
'03 CL-S (pistons) - 10.5:1 CR or
'05 RL (pistons) - 11.0:1 CR
Note: Odyssey pistons do not have clearance to fit large 36mm J32A2 (intake) valves. Solution - custom job to
increase valve pockets.
BTW, The only advantage to get J32A2 block is due to better cylinder sleeves to withstand heat designed for higher
redline vehicle, otherwise depending on the price Odyssey '01, '02 block is the best bet.
The best bet is to have '01 Odyssey block and swap in '05 RL pistons. Not sure about '01-02 MDX block this should
be checked. '03-04 MDX crankshaft which is the same part as '05 RL
will not work.
Bottom line, I checked crank, rods cannot be used from either '03-04 MDX or '05 RL on Odyssey block - they won't
work. Only 'RL pistons/rings are good.
Piston Part#
13010-RJA-000, 2005 RL, $50.47, 36mm/30mm (intake/exhaust valves)
13010-PGK-A01, 2002-2004 Odyssey, $29.89, 30mm/30mm
and Accord V6 valves are 30mm/30mm.
And since MDX piston is exactly the same as Odyssey, let's stick to Odyssey.
This is the documented proof showing '05 RL pistons are perfect fit for large CL-S/TL-S 36mm intake valves when installing 3.2L heads
on 3.5L block whereas '02-04 Odyssey pistons required metal removal to increase valve pockets to fit.
Let's just stick to Odyssey
BTW, $50 each '05 RL piston set can be purchased from acuraautomotiveparts.org
So those who want J32A2 (CL-S/TL-S) heads on J35A1 ('01 Odyssey) complete block the best bet is '05 RL pistons otherwise get '02-'04
Odyssey pistons and have machine shop to clear the valve "pockets"
Or another option is '01-03 J32A2 (CL-S/TL-S) heads on '01-03 J32A2 (CL-S/TL-S)block. But you need Odyssey '01-03 crankshaft and rods
as indicated on the page 1 (see J35A1/J32A2 listing) + '05 RL pistons
Here are the updated options :
BLOCK/HEADS (incl. manifold (upper/lower), tb)
------------------
J30A1/J30A1
advantage: no modification needed.
disadvantage: no torque until turbo/sc kicks in.
J30A1/J32A2
advantage: mid-range and top-end power
disadvantage: J30A1 pistons have to be modified to fit large J32A2 (intake) valves.
Not much torque until turbo/sc kicks in.
J32A2/J32A2
advantage: no modification needed, mid-range, top-end power.
disadvantage: torque is still ok but better than J30A1
J35A4/J30A1 (Odyssey '02-04/ '00-02 Accord V6)
advantage: no modifications needed, great torque, nice mid-range
disadvantage: top-end power
J35A3/J35A3 (Acura MDX '01-02)
advantage: no modifications needed, great torque, nice mid-range
disadvantage: little less air flow than J32A2 but very close.
This option looks like a good choice if getting the complete engine or even separate short block and cyl.
heads/manifold due to a price. And MDX the cyl.
heads are the same part # as CL-S, however intake valves and cams are different than CL-S.
J35A3/J32A2 ('01-02 MDX/CL-S '01-03) or J35A4/J32A2 (Odyssey '02-04/CL-S '01-03)
advantage: great entire powerband and especially torque.
disadvantage: Need CL-S or RL pistons.
There are also couple options:
Option 1
With '01-02 complete MDX block or '02-04 Odyssey complete block (crank/rods/pistons) it is required to purchase 2005 Acura RL

-= acuraautomotiveparts.org =-
'03 CL-S (pistons) - 10.5:1 CR or
'05 RL (pistons) - 11.0:1 CR
pistons rings (per chosen model)

BTW, The only advantage to get J32A2 block is due to better cylinder sleeves to withstand heat designed for higher redline vehicle,
otherwise depending on the price Odyssey or MDX block are the best bet.
Keep in mind, J35A5 '03-04 MDX will not fit on 6th gen. AV6/CL/TL/CL-S/TL-S due to different design, and looks like only for 7th gen.
AV6.

Im having so much trouble figureing out how or if i can even put a m/t on this specific engine j35a7 04 odyssey was a loaded odysses supposedly ive fou d its i-vtec? I know it runs dang strong we replaced it with an 06 version an its an dang good motor to. But i dont really want my gsr to be auto so please can someone help with just a quick direct link or answer as to what or if i can make the j35a7 a manual and put it in a 98 gsr integra? Thanks so much if in advance! As name shows im not a guru im not stupid im pretty informed its the only bran ive ever really owned and only ive super read up about im just new to j series got the swap for 100$ engine and trans harness on engine no axels ecu alt or starter neds coils and plugs.

You will need to use the J35A8 6 speed from the 07-08 TL-S

I agree that this forum contains a wealth of information, but it's all spread out all over the place and the answer to most questions on common items is to "do a search". However, when you do a search you then need to read through a whole lot of noise to find the actual info that is usually buried somewhere.

If you get 200 results and you don't know which thread you're looking for, it makes for a long and tedious search unfortunately.

Yeah, ya need specific ..... "Integra" forum's help ..... it's out there !!!

Try to use key or specific words. Shorten the time frame to search from, there are ALL sorts of things to use that limit how much you need to dig thru.
