thanks man i asked honda ghandi he said like $1200 that a lot i think
His work is well worth it though. He gets the job done right the first time and backs up his work as well. I've seen many examples of his work. Let me look into the complication of doing it and maybe I could help you out on it sometime.

If you want it done right, that's how much it costs. You're much better off just selling your automatic and getting a manual car.
Oh, also.. was $1,200 including the cost of parts? (Tranny, clutch, pedals, etc.)

It is a rough estimate. That is mostly labor, but it is usually enough to scare anyone away from doing the work. You really have to LOVE your car to want to do that to it. Like Weston said it is much easier to sell it and buy an manual.
Ooooo.. yeah.. that on top of how much it'll cost you for the parts would be insane.

Tranny, frame mount, dash harness, ECU, pedal assemblies, clutch, flywheel, shift linkage, gauge cluster, yadda yadda.... See what I mean. This job is not easy or cheap. The last one I did was an automatic accord wagon, swapped to 5 speed H22. Took me about 3 weeks of solid work and it cost about $10k. Nice car in the end but that money would have been better spent in other places.
LOL.. holy shit..... was there some sort of sintimental value with the car? Ouch.

Yeah, it had custom paint and interior. he already had about $30k sunk into the bastard for custom shit. It looked nice but he should have never started with an Auto.
