transmissions

[balishan]

ok, I got my p10 like 8 months ago and it's an automatic. at first I didn't think this would piss me off that much, but now, I can't stand the stupid auto!!! so boring to drive. how much would a auto-manual tranny swap cost? is it AT ALL worth it? I've looked for other G's in the area to see if I should just sell mine and get a manual, but they are rare around here........well, input would be great.......thanks

I too am stuck with an auto. To the best of my knowledge, swapping trannies requires new axles, a new ecu, and a bunch of other parts in addition to the tranny itself. Not to mention the labor. To pay someone to do it for you would be well in the 3000+ range. If you can, it would probably be cheaper and easier to get a different car. Try looking at www.autotrader.com.
