auto to 5spd mount modification
 

yeah so i have this 94 lx 4 dr, auto (blown tranny) 255k and i pick up this whole z6 5spd swap. i get it all in and then for some reason my upper tranny mount wouldnt line up, and the mount from the auto tranny is a lot different.

so i go on honda-tech and ask what mount i should use, and i found out that hasport makes a custom mount and its a must for the swap. so i made this up, works fine.

typically the hasport mount is a jdm ricer way to go about it...

the better way is to get a factory manual trans mount, and then spend the $35 from honda for the correct mount hanger, drill the auto one off the frame rail, and weld the manual one back on. The frame hanger for the 5 speed sits flat and forward a tiny bit.

jesus christ and I thought my mount was shitty haha, I used the manual trans mount and redrilled it.

the overkill 5 mounts on a 92+ civic is more than enough to hold these engines in

well the thing is i probably will be just using 3 mounts, the one shown, the one on the timing side and the rear mount.

its the 5spd mount redrilled and then i had to use those big nuts as spacers to get the rest to line up, thats the way to be.... with big nuts
