converting an auto to manual...
 

I have a 91 na automatic.......its gay, well dont get me wrong i love my rx.....but either im converting it to a manual or im getting a new car (an fd would be nice). but i was just wondering if anyone knew what price range im talking here. I know it'll be quite expensive, but im just wondering what others have been charged.

IT'S EASY TO DO.....
we got an old car for $700 took the motor and trannie out changed the trannie from auto to manual and put back in. total 4 hours. make sure you locate a pilot bearing , 2 1/4? scoket , some big friends to help loosen the nut.
the car will be used as backup parts for the race car.
hope this helps

do a search......... i just finished mine on my 90 vert and i love it, its real easy

btw, it cost me about $800 for all the parts (did the swap myself)

rx_7_driver, might I ask where you got the parts? $800 seems pretty damn good. was it a rebuilt tranny or just pulled from a parts car? also, what clutch?

tranny was pulled from a car it was rebuilt and had about 20-30 k on it after the rebuilt, the clutch is used (ran outta cash, but i am getting a new one )the tranny also came with drive shaft, clutch comonets, pedal, ect (basicly everything i needed except a starter) i had to buy a few other parts , like a pilot bearing.

btw the swap would have cost me about 600 if i didn't need a rad and other parts that were already broken and needed to be replaced
