I have a 01 civic EX with a auto tranny.....i tore the tranny up this last week and I am considering do a swap to make the car a std. Does anyone know around how much this will run me or if it is even possible to do it? Please help me.

bleh i'm goin to get warrenty work done.....I dont know what caused it this time. I had it overhauled about 4 months ago because i was doing neutral drops and things of that nature....but since the overhaul i quit all the racing and neutral drops and decided to go all show instead. I'm just hoping the guy at the shop doesnt try to BS and say its been raced and the warrenty is void. I know I havnt raced it since the overhaul for that reason.

great job, lets compare a multi-million dollar/several thousand horse power racing car to an imported 4 cylinder economy car....designed to run on 87 octane gasoline....not alcohol or nitro
its true that some of the best automatic cars in the world are faster....but thats when they're tuned to do so. a stock stick shift civic will beat a stock auto civic. why? cuz the driver controls all the aspects that cant be controlled in an auto civic. stick is better..engine braking makes my brakes last longer, and overall its more fuel efficient and not to mention easier to maintain...those are reasons enough to me as to why stick shift is better than auto....auto is fine, but id rather stick to the std transmission. btw...it also makes the car cheaper.
