Swapping to a 5spd is very easy. I did a cvt swap to 5spd on a HX and it was pretty much straight forward to me atleast. It cost me approx. in the low 1k with everything I needed.

just warning you, if you don't know very much about your car, a tranny swap is really not the place to start learning. but anyway it's possible. there's some info in the sticky in the transmission section of the forum. you can also search for pretty much anything you so desire to know.
