Rep Power: 0 he sold his 98 Jetta for 24000 and a 94 Camry for 5000 or so.
He got a 2000 Celica for 28000.
I don't even know how he sold both of those cars when they weren't in his name. lol
I just remember the mom calling and and said she's stuck at home because the camry's gone and the new car is a manual.

Rep Power: 0 It will cost around $3000 incl. labour. Most mechanics and people will tell you its not worth the money or trouble. It wouldn't perform as well as a car that came originally with a manual transmission. The Civic is not a fast car regardless of manual or auto. I would just mod the Civic the way it is, and when the time comes, save up for a better car and get a manual than. Say a Type S.

Rep Power: 0 why do people always say changing trans will not be the same as stock. it may and it may not be as good as an original manual but it functions the same if properly assembled. u don't see people talking about engine swaps saying don't do it because it won't be like the original car that had that engine and blah blah blah.
