because stock honda automatics aren't designed to handle any significant amount of torque, and beefing them up to do so is kind of dumb, when the manuals are so easy to work with

ORIGINAL: fallfast90 I am not sure about imports, but it's not worth to spend all that time and money on the swap. A built auto is pretty much superior to a manual. in an american muscle car or a supra making over 1K whp. Not in a honda civic.

Hell... a lot of them break with JUST stock power. When it comes to Honda, you need a manual, or a clutchless dogbox via Liberty.
