Need help!! Ca18det tranny to ka24e 5 manual tranny

[DJTimeless]

hey just as the title says. I've searched many forums and read a lot about the ca18det motor swaps into s13's. I Just have one question if you guys can help me with that. I've recently bought a ca18det and it came with an automatic tranny, I want to kno if the bell housing from the ca18det auto tranny will bolt up to the ka24e 5 speed tranny? or will I need the ca18det manual bell housing? the help will be much appreciated.

You got all the parts why don't you just try it?

Yea I'm going to do that. But I wanted to know for sure before I take apart the tranny because its going to take some time to source a ca bellhousing

Good luck finding a ca tranny. I had one recently and sold it for $180

Yea I know. I'm located in the U.S.A so it's even harder. So I read a little more n I don't believe that the auto bellhousing will work. I will need a 5 speed bellhousing because I want to use my ka24e tranny. Anyone has a bellhousing that's willing to sell me n shipped?

You need the manual bellhousing. Take a look at the auto vs manual transmissions and you will notice right away that you can't bolt either of them together. You can always cut off the flange and get fancy with some welding but bolting it on will not work.

Yea thanks for the input. If anyone do have a spare ca 5 speed bellhousing willing to sell and shipped if close to nyc I can pick up. I put a post in the want to buy already
