this has been mentioned b4. let's just say you bought the wrong car. it would cost too much to do the conversion. u might as well take that money and swap motors while ur at it

thanks for answering my question..i feel sad now that i have to have a alot of $$$$$$$
to change into stick shift...i should have learned it first before getting the car![IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/IMG]

Keep the automatic a couple years, then trade for a stick. Or spend your money on mods.

SuperCivic2k1

alright...but how much will it cost to change it to stick right now..just give me a estimate

NBlarson

Well, a lot of numbers have been thrown around, but ur lookin at 3 g easy, ur better off trading in for a manual.

it will void your warranty so just keep it. but if you wanted to do it, it wouldnt be too bad, you just have to find a wreck and rip the trans, clutch, cables,and shifter out....oh yeah, you need a clutch pedal. its about 1300 around here

You could always get a short shifter, not cheap, but cheaper than a new tranny

can you change to tiptronic (sp?) i wanted to change from auto to manual as well cause i thought in s. cali auto would be nice...but guess what...i still freaking hate it...i would rather sit in traffic with a stick then with my auto. but i was also told it is easier to buy a new car then change....but then i was also told to change to tiptronic.....please dont start flaming on me if this is a stupid question or been posted before...i am just curious and been through posts and did some research as well and just cant find anything.

You have to have a manual before you can get a short shifter (a short shifter just makes your shifts on a MANUAL shorter & quicker). It has nothing to do with a automatic.

Im not sure if theres a tiptonic for honda. I know Mitsubishi make one. Back in my country they sell Lancer with tiptonic they call it INVECS II.

But I have Driven an SUV that uses an tiptronic its a BMW X5 my aunt own one. And I can borrow it as long as I like. But theres nothing compare driving a Stick. Driving a tiptronic is like driving your auto transmission starting on D1 D2 D3 D4 and so on. The fun of how manual drives, that they can't imitate.

get a manual, you wont' regret it. I got an auto, but now I'm wishing it was a manual

if you want it that bad, trade the car in and get a 5-speed. youll lose some money, but youll have a brand new car and a 5-speed

SuperCivic2k1

YEAH! but i will lose all my custom stuff and the stuff i bought for my car..like how im i gonna put the stock pipe back on and the muffler and the resanator and the taillights????it will be hard and it will cost more money!!!

Nah, automatic all the way for me baby. One hand on the wheel and one on girly. None of the shifting sh*t. No time for that.

swmrsharon

Me too. I love my automatic. It's really hard to drive a stick and eat breakfast at the same time.
