This is our "new" 1992 Acura Vigor
The first project for this car was to get it running, we bought it w/ our tax return and it needed a new automatic transmission.
I decided to replace the transmission w/ a manual one. This entry will show the steps/progress of the swap.
Feel free to use this site as a referrence, but I hold no liability as to any damages you may inccur to your vehicle.

These pictures were taken for reference before the motor was pulled....

hello, successfully changed the vcg, it was a snap indeed, thanks for the 411. Was also wondering if I could have your advice again, it seems my oil pressure switch has gone, I see on the sketch up in the manual where it is located above the oil filter and cooler, but I can't seem to get to it, and it's rather difficult to feel around for, i think it's in a tight spot. I wonder, would I have to jack up the car to access it? I haven't been able to find anywhere online a photo of the exact location, I'd really appreciate the help. Cheers.

Hello, saw your ride, great pics! Was looking on google about how to change a valve cover gasket on a 1992 Acura Vigor GS, think you could be of any help? It'd be greatly appreciated, cheers

Very impressive. I played with the idea of doing this conversion myself. Drop by the acuravigorclub.com sometime, you're expertise would be always welcomed there!
