Oh one more thing, I found a 7MGTE motor on Ebay with 35,000 miles on it WITH the manual tranny. If thise would be the way to go I would need someone around this area to help me do the swap or point me in the direction of someone who can. My buddy is doing a swap into his Civic Hatch, so we may just rough this lol. The engine and tranny is $1500 + shipping. Good deal?

That sound about right for the engine & tranny (the $1500) if they are good.
Keep in mind that there are other parts required for the 5 speed conversion, seen in the following link:

Seems like so many want to change things around when they first get a car.
I would wait and see if things are OK before making a revolution with it.
(Just how I think. I would get to know it first.)

Anyways, it sounds as if you got a good deal. Post some pics.
