conversion from automatic to manual

I was wondering if anyone would know how much the cost would be to change my car from an automatic to a standard and what parts I would need to do so?

Well if you your car was offered with a manual it is quite simple, all you need is the shifter, linkage, transaxle and all that good stuff. Just look around a slavage yard for a wrecked one, or you can order all the parts from the dealership. You best bet is to call the dealership and ask them all the parts you would need.

depends on the gearbox your planning to put into it, when mine was done it wasnt that expensive... its just a f***in hard job doin it by yourself, and when you've only got jacks to hold it up it becomes even harder
