UPDATED: Evan's Quest for a J32 6MT 6GA

Hey I am doing the same swap i literally have the same set up J32A Type-S, 06 6 SPEED M/T, with 03 CL-St 6 speed engine harness and ecu and my car won't pass 2k. Can u post some pictures on where exactly you drilled the hole on the accord transmission for the sensor I need to drill one as well but don't know where exactly

Sorry to hear this Evan, sucks. There is an answer though, someone has got to know, I assume many people have been doing true manual swaps since the module is long gone.

I have been looking into the AEM Series 2 EMS 30-6051 it looks like this is our only solution, it says is a plug and play but with a auto engine harness and that means we need to use automatic engine with a 6speed m/t only thing we have to repin or rewire will be the speed sensor and the lock out solenoid for the manual transmission belive, and we will be able to tune the engine and mess around with vtec engagement, 2 step, ect.

I gather some information on the trigger sensor that goes in the transmission, we might be able to drill the hole get it in the right position, but we need to replace the accord flywheel with the 03 6Speed CL-S witch is around $500 dollars in autozone and the sensor cost around $100 to $200 dollars from Acura, so in my opinion if we aim for the AEM EMS we don't need to replace flywheel, buy sensor for transmission, drill a hole on the transmission, worrying about having the sensor position in the right angle, and we can get the engine tuned and gain a few more hp and tq.

Update: It starts, but still cuts out. Been reading about a few things:

1.) Air Gap for sensors. It might be too far away, so that'll be the first thing that I try.

2.) Tuning the stock ECU. I've heard little about this, but it is supposedly possible.
--Just talked to my tuner friend about this and he said it's something no one usually does and does not recommend. So one option out the door

3.) Piggyback on the stock ECU. Have seen some decent results off a piggyback, so also a good thing to at least research.


But still cannot get my temp gauge to work. I re-wired it and still nothing. I did however clean up my NSS wiring also.

Hey Evan,

How do you currently have your temp gauge wired up? The circuit wiring per the manuals is as follows. Not sure if this helps as the Accord signal comes directly from the sensor and the CLS comes from the ECM.

Accord:

Eng Temp Gauge C (2) --> C302 (14) --> C103 (2) --> Eng Temp Sending Unit

CLS:

Eng Temp Gauge B (3) --> ECM E(14)
