ENG: Drilling/tapping prelude transmission to fit an accord

[i97supratti]

this is just for H trannies.

And i think someone mentioned at the top that its for 5th gen trannies also right?

[4CYLPOWER92]

Nice DIY. You really simplified the process. I thought it was way more difficult than that.

yes...

im using a 5th gen exr coupe tranny (cad version)

[defjamon22z]

they dont fix man. i got the ex tranny and the 5th gen manual tranny mount dont fix.. maybe cuz i gotta loosen the other motor mount and push the engine forward just alittle bit to make it fix? the only mount loosen is the driver, front that's it.

[heylookitsdylan]

Im assuming this is only for 5spds? my H23 Auto tranny boltes right in.

[Night Wolf]

did you use the same tranny mount?

[bakedaccord_90]

this has been on my mind for awhile about this tapping thing
i have a 5spd
why do we have to tap the tranny?

do we do this to use our mount and bracket?
or why can't we just use the prelude mount and bracket
will it fit?

thanks

you tap the LUDE tranny so the ACCORD mount will fit.

Wait, so what do I have to do to put an H2U5 into a 98 prelude? Will it go in or do I have to drill holes? Are the holes already there, just not tapped or is the hole just blank metal?

IIRC h2u5 is from an f22a6 and should have the blank stud holes... double check, make sure theres 5 studs on top of the tranny, 3 tapped, 2 not. yes you would have to drill and tap the 2 extra holes.

was TysCb7's car already M/T?

cuz I tryed this with my full H swap on my A/T CB frame. & the mount was way too forward

yes this is for a 5spd going into a 5spd frame.

auto->manual conversion is something different and doesnt usually require you to drill or tap the transmission.

[Night Wolf]

^^^ what would that be then? am I suppost to use a 5th gen M/T mount? cuz Im stuck on this...

[texasvtak]

Youre stuck on this because you have no deductive reasoning skills. Either that or reading comprehension. Why am I thinking youre suffering from some combination of the two? If you use a cd mt mount or a 4g Prelude mt mount you do not have to tap an h trans. You will have to tap the f trans to use one of those mounts.

[Night Wolf]

^^^ no I dont suffer from the 2




& Im gunna try the CD MT mount. the lude one I read has problems
