automatic to stick

injun · 03-22-2004, 05:27 PM

Is it possible to change an automatic car to a manual. If so how hard would it be, and how much.

Possible and common. Your local shop will do it for $600 plus parts. And if you feel like doing it yourself, there's a good guide on www.zilvia.net somewhere.

very possible, Its done often on cars that didnt come with Manuals or the manuals were rare (think cressidas and M30s) also its done pretty often with the S13s because they sold so many more autos then manuals.

Prices depend on a number of things, mostly the car, i think 500 dollars is a good amount probably for most cars, assuming you can get junkyard parts.

what car you thinking about? and we can find more info on it.
