Well I got my parts to do the auto to manual swap..only thing is the clutch I got is used, and I mean USED. Also I don't have a flywheel yet...that's it.



Got it all for...1000 bucks plus tax so 1082.50 or something like that. Which seems like a damn good price to me.



Anyways I'm broke now and I'm trying to buy a flywheel and a clutch. =)



I wish that someone had a how-to on the internet about the swap... only site that came remotely close that I've found only had the parts list (which helped alot).



So anyways I'm just about ready to start turning this thing into a beast.



I'll be pimpin' in a 4-door Hyudai Elantra til it get's done. =)

i was just wondering, wouldnt it have been cheaper and easier to sell your auto tran car and get another car with manual tranni?

Everybody has said that. He got his car for a good price if i remember correctly. And the resale value of a automatic isn't as much as a manual. Just go on Autotrader and compare prices on the two.

hehe I got mine for 10 grand with a brand new engine in it, in semi-perfect condition (the car), with a new paint job.



I got the parts for hella cheap.

I'm getting a brand new flywheel and a brand new clutch for 250 tomorrow.





Yea I've seen it... Just wish it was a little more detailed.

I'm pretty new at this stuff.
