What is a fair price/amount of hours in labor required for an auto to manual conversion? I'm just looking for a ball park, not the cheapest and not the most expensive.

Are there any serious downsides to doing this?

 

Sorry, I'll search first. Mostly interested in how much labor I should expect from a mechanic.

 

It takes a fair amount of time, I can assure you of that. A lot is involved in this process. If you are doing the ENTIRE swap, you have a lot to do -
1. Tranny
2. Pedals
3. Driveshaft
4. Diff
5. ECU
6. Flywheel (counterweight)
7. Clutch (pretty involved)


I can't give you man hours off the top of my head...but I'm pretty sure it's NOT cheap.

 

I want to do the same thing but no one can give me a price either i found all the parts for 800 but i am weary on doing the work my self any recomendations?

Thanks for the links to the other threads the one was helpfull. i saw you posted a few with opinions do you thin kit is worth the money to swap out. i have all the parts but i am weary on doing it the shops out here in japan are asking for 120000yen to do the swap its about 1000 dollars. The auto has a strong kick but i miss sdriving a stick my 300zx and FTO are both stick i need the 7 to make the family come together. do you think this is a fair price and is it worth the money when you drive one that has the ability to do what you want?

 

$1000? I would have said yes on the spot. Hurry and call them before they changer their mind!

 

Compact cars who specializes in rotaries, will install it for $600 if you supply all the parts. A few members have had it done their and no problems as of yet.

 

i think it would cost more to ship it to Florida i live out in japan. thanks though.I called the guy and asked to make an appointment to have the work done. i will post how things go

 

whoa whoa... hook it up with number and location
