Automatic To Manual 92 Hatch

I have a stock D15 engine that has just died for good. I want to do a swap to the Acura GSR engine. I need to know exactly how difficult switching from auto to manual is going to be. Is this something that I should even attempt?Any advice would be awesome. THANKS

My advice would be to throw a junkyard engine in your current car, sell it, buy manual. If you have all the right parts & some mechanical knowledge converting auto to manual isn't all that hard.

doing an auto to manual swap by yourself with little to no knowledge of how to do it will be veeeeeeerrrryyyy difficult, I'm talking on a 1-10 scale it would be like 982347293847295723048394.

Do what jackassi said, find another d15 motor, should run you $150 AT THE MOST! And buy a manual car, I guarantee you will have more into the tranny conversion than the car is worth and you can save most of that money by selling your car and just getting a manual

Re: Automatic To Manual 92 Hatch

a manual transmission doesn't just magically pop out of the fucking sky when you change your ECU.
