does anyone know if it's possible to convert a 92 240sx from a manual tranny to an automatic tranny? if so, how much would it run?

Trade your 240 MT for a similar shape 240 AT. Almost every one here will take that trade.

The swap you describe is possible, just uncommon, most people swap the other way. A mechanic will charge you around $1500 for the swap. (Remanufacture on a used auto tranny.)

The only reason I would ever swap a MT for an AT is if my left leg were amputated or something. =(

Keep the MT if you can.

Re: possible?

Learn to drive MT. I learned to drive stick in SF where I was rolling back into cars every other block b/c of the hills. I also lived and drove in Tokyo for 2 years where roads are way too overcrowded. Trust me, w/just a little practice stick shift will become second nature. It's so much more fun to drive even in traffic. But hey, alas to each their own. I think KenOhki is right when he says it'll be around $1500.

Learn MT, you will save 2000 bucks and have a MUCH better ride.

Go find an empty parking lot, and drive the car back and forth for like an hour, you will pick up MT VERY fast.

Re: possible?

Is it possible to learn? yes. Believe it or not, at one point in time, nobody knew how to drive a MT. Why did you buy a manual if you didn't know how to drive it?
