Re: auto to manual help?

yeah there is two mounts one that goes in the front and one on the left side.
and the Auto Subframe wont work you need the manual because the mount that goes on the tranny in the front is about two inches different to the left.
but the manual subframe does bolt right up with the auto bolts.
also you dont need a dash harness you can save some money an i can tell you how to reuse your auto. but you do need the manual engine harness.
Also when I bought my tranny it didnt come with the bracket for the mount so make sure you have the bracket or you wont be able to use the mount on the tranny and no dealership keeps the bracket in stock its on "Special Order".
and to be honest I am still using my auto axles I lined up the manual one and the auto ones and they were the exact same length so I gaved my friend the manual one since his went bad and I've been using the auto axles so you can reuse those to.
Also there the bolt that goes into the mount on the right side off the tranny you can reuse that also.Installing the shifter you reuse the 4 bolts thats holding down the auto shifter.
If you have any questions please let me know I am more than happy to help you out.
Are you going to be using the Auto ECU and Engine harness? or are you switching out everything at the same time?

After you install the Engine harness you can just reconnect the Auto ECU to it and drive it to your job and then connect the Manual ECU so you can get the Reflash the Auto ECU works with Manual Harness you just go into limp mode lol.But the Car wont start with the Manual ECU until you get it reflash.
For the dash Harness if you want to save some $$ all you have to do is ground out two wires and you're set.
