im in a bit of a tangle here
well i might be getting my 240sx finally tommorow but here is the thing its an automatic. now i want a 5 spd manual but somone is buying the car for me which is cheap (90 240sx fastback for $1100). my question is how much would an auto to 5 speed conversion cost and is it worth it?

that would be everything done.... its not really hard since its a factory option and nothing needs to be fabricated, more then likely they don't even have to drill any holes for different screws/bolts. for the DIY'ers most parts can be salvaged cheaply and its a bolt on process if you have the tools and know how, it isn't that hard with proper tools and lift....

most cars, if from the factory they can come equipt with an auto or a manual, have everything done to them so any part can be bolted in... You can probably just install the clutch pedal and slave cylinder and it will bolt right in, you won't have to do any customization/cutting/welding/drilling. I know this is the case for the late 80's maxima and thats a Nissan, so I assume its the same with a 240sx.

Damn sirs... auto to 5spd conversion... I've heard that there are a lot of problems when you do that conversion.... although 1100 dollars... that's CHEAP! But yeah, I know a guy with a honduh prelude and he got the h22 front clip and he's having a lot of problems, and he had it done professionally too at a very reputable shop

most cars is bolt on if its factory option........ you start putting in other shit from different types of cars of course its not going to be perfect. I've helped take out and put in more transmissions then you will ever see in your life, its not very complicated IF its made for the car.... pretty straight forward with proper lifts, jackstands, tools....
