I payed $3000Cdn for a ZC with an auto to manual conversion. That equals about $2000US. That also included a new timing belt, water pump, spark plugs and other misc stuff.

swapping just the tranny isnt worth it. but when you decide to do an engine swap thats the time to do it. it should all just bolt up easy.

I haven't done it yet but I have been quoted $1300 to do this swap. There is no way I would do it if it was 3k that's for sure but thats just me.
The way I look at it just do what makes you happy. If doing a auto to manual swap is what you wan't then by all means do it regardless of price or what other people say.

It is not that hard to do...as long as you have all of the parts that you need

Man, for 3Gs you'd be getting raped. I payed $3400 for my COMPLETE B16 swap and auto to manual conversion.
If you want to know a couple good guys for the job in the Toronto area, give me an e-mail.

If your car is auto and you have to buy a new motor,tranny,ECU you might as well go B series because you need to change all that shit anyway. :devil:
