hey guys im going to soon be doing an auto to manual conversion to my 93 civic ej1 auto, i have everything now except the tranny.......wich ill be picking up when i get some money....anyways i have been doing a lot of researching about the 5 speed swap and i am pretty sure i can pull it off becuase i have red up on everything.........the onlly thing i do not want to have to do is drill off my auto tranny mount and rewelding a 5 speed mount bracket on.........i was wondering if there is a special mount bracket relocating kit for this? i went on hasport and found this.......http://hasport.com/catalog/product_i...d=115.......it says auto to manual but i just want to make 100% sure before i pay $175.00 for it. will that hasport mount make it so i do not have to drill out the spotwelds in my auto bracket and weld on a 5 sp bracket? how does that hasport mount work? if it takes out the fabrication and it just bolts on i might go for it...........now discusss. thank you. and if that is not what i need does anyone know were i can find a relocation kit?

yes that mount will work... but when i did mine it was very ez to do with out it.. i just drilled my old mount off and welded in the maunal mount.. heres a tip for ya make sure u get all the hard lines going form the master to the slave cylander(sp) makes things a lot ez'er

i already have all the hardlines and there all in good shape....all i need is a 5 speed trans, a new clutch, and a 5 sp starter. and than i can do this. my biggest fair is drilling out that auto bracket and welding on the 5 sp one.....i have someone that welds really good but i am not sure were to wedl the 5 speed one? i dont wanna weld it in the wrong spot and have to cut it off and hack up my frame...so i thought that for $175.oo thats not bad......does that hasport relocating mount just bolt up to the auto one? and also does it make it so i do not have to cut off the auto bracket its just bolt on? if it makes it that easy i think its worth it. i was gonna drill out the auto bracket until i found the reloacting mount.....but for 175 i wanted to make sure its what i need before i waste money. and info on the swap is appreciated. i have red a lot but i can never have to much info.........did you have to weld in the shifter cup? i still gotta get a shifter cup to i have to........

yea.. the hasport mount will bolt right up to ur auto bracket.. and no i just drilled two holes for the shifter and that was it

thanks...so its really that much easier just to buy the hasport mount that way i dont have to deal with cutting/welding a new mount bracket....that seems well worth the $175.00 imo. thanks any input or advie is appreicated. :P

i wouldnt waste the money, drilling out the old one isnt hard, and the new one is as simple as bolting everything in, attach the mount to the new bracket, and set it in place, put a jack under the tranny so it holds the lower mount rubber in the center of the metal casing, and tack it into place. weld up and you're money.
