AT to MT Help (New Owner)
Hey whats up guys,
well yesterday i bought a 86 GXL the cleanest looking car! clean title clean everything interior & exterior.... well any ways... the owner was part way to doing the AT to MT Swap (He already bought the Manual Tranny w/ Shifter its now in the trunk of my car)... already put a new motor w/ about 30k-40k... but moved to San diego (from LA) cause he got a job offer, a house.. everything, and left the FC behind w/ his mother.... so i purchased it...
before i picked up the car... i went to a Mazda specialist... and he was telling me a load of something... and it sounded more like a load of crap... he was saying its gunna be about $5k+ to do the simple conversions... is this true...
I've read the AT - MT Guide its very helpful.... i found on search, and it seems not to hard... but can anyone give me some advice on how to start off.... or how should i proceed with this... any help would be much appreciative...
heres what i know about the car
Its a 1986 Mazda RX-7 GXL
The Pedals have not been changed yet (Still AT Pedals)
The AT Trannys gone and i have the New MT Tranny In My Hatch
New motor swap 30k-40K from japan...
Cars clean title... clean interior... clean exterior... I'm loving it even though it doesn't run... lol
like i said any help would be grateful!
Thanks!
