F#$K it..... Let the shop do it.

I'm not really interested in how to do the auto to manuel swap myself partially due to the fact that I would get

1. What shops perform the swap. (well known or dude in garage=I don't care)

2. Can or do they source the parts or should I / can I provide them.

Touring Pkg
-65,000k on body
-8,000k on reman
-8,000k on trans
-8,000k on turbos

Original owner car. Was a doctor... sold me the fd in light of a recent Vette purchase.
It is immaculate with no pealing in the interior and no paint fading.

Sold= $11,500. It was on cars.com for about 5 months. (I still can't believe no one
snatched it before I did.)

Give me one good reason to sell this thing and buy a manual. Besides I dig the crusing RPMs this thing gives me on the highy in between college and home....for now.

Yeah, I just found out a little bit a go that Banzai does do the swap. I've heard nothing but praise for this shop.

Attention, ya'll need to stop this modding craziness, go home, and enjoy your cars the way they are. That's right Booonneeee Stttoooccckkkk

(sorry man I can't help it. I'm nearly 20 and haven't made fun of someone in sooooo long.)


But seriously, I have about as much reason to keep this car auto as I do inches to my dick, and that just isn't enough. I know it probably bugs some people that this process takes place but I tell you what, I'll let whoever pm's me first have dibs on my whole automatic drivline Only 8k miles. pretty nice huh huh..

The last thing I want this to become is a debate. I've seen the auto manuel debate threads, and all they motivate me to do is go to the kitchen, get a plastic knife, and then with a quick thrusting motion.... stick it in my jugular (jugluler, big vein in neck).


I would appreciate only responding threads that correlate to the title of the thread, Thank You.
