(this is all just guesswork)

Without knowing, I would suspect a gear swap is dependent on what Honda/Acura vehicles use the same tranny. If it's an "Acura-only" tranny, then I doubt that a tall 6th gear exists. Assuming a taller 6th gear does exist, you probably would have to drop the tranny. There is a micro-chance that you could swap the gear without dropping the tranny :
