Auto Tranny to Manual Tranny

I'm thinking about buying a black RX-7 that is automatic, but I want it to be a manual. How much would the conversion cost? And how labor intensive?

cost depends a number of factors but figure you will spend 500 dollars at the least by the time you get all your little odds and ends....


My advice, you want a 5 speed, buy a 5 speed
