    Looks awesome -- 00-01 PDE head too. How much did you get that H23A for?

    Whatever you do, make certain that your reverse lockout solenoid is functioning. Connect a test light to it and run it back to the cabin if you need to. When I first got my Frankenstein J-series / FK8 transmission working, I didn't have the distance set properly for the mainshaft speed sensor...

    Whatchu mean about the reverse switch? Both transmissions have a physical switch for the reverse lights. 27mm socket is needed to pull the reverse light switch off the front of the J trans. There's 3x 8mm head bolts (M6x1.0 threads) that hold on the reverse lockout solenoid. This engages...

    I actually ran the CL-S seats on the Accord seat bottoms with manual recliner. I had to either drill two holes or slot a piece of steel that the seat back bolts onto. I don't remember exactly what I did. It's the type of thing that you'd be able to figure out pretty easily if you were to...

    Awesome. Yeah he CL chassis is freaking heavy lol. 3470 lbs for 2003 CL-S 6MT with Navigation System (3446 lbs without Navigation System) For comparison, my '06 Accord Sedan V6 6MT is listed 3371 lbs. What I did before to estimate what the 6g Accord would weigh was subtract the '03 CL-S 6MT...

    What made you decide to switch everything from the CL-S chassis to the Accord chassis? You may have mentioned already

    I typed it out wrong. I meant to type 2-4-6-R 1-3-5

    What about using V6 Accord dash harness?

    Oh dang, I didn't even see that you'd posted before. Here's a pic that shows different "shift levers" (Honda's name for it) The factory shift cable stay on the transmission has 3 locations (or 'slots') that the shift cables can go into, yet only two are used. Dependent upon which of these is...

    Can you please elaborate on what all you did wiring wise? Good idea on the no oil reminder. Everything is looking good. Though, I must say that it would look so much better if you had a transmission with my gears in it! -- Or even any transmission at all for that matter! haha

    Found it. I think this one shows some of the techniques for making mounts and brackets
