Swapping automatic to manual transmission Is it even possible to take out an automatic transmission and replace it with a manual gearbox or whatever its called? and if so, how much would it cost? |
sorry, im new to the car scene and i'd like to do some upgrades to it instead of buying a new car altogether. could somoene fill me in on how to work with everything? thanks :) |
its possible with the right amount of money. Pretty much you would need pedal assembly, linkage, manual transmission, im not sure on our cars how hard it is to swap the shifter assembly. Gotta get a new master cylinder I believe. Its a lot of work and money. |
what he said roughly around 800-1000, well thats how much it cost for my friends prelude |
a lot of money, and hit the search tab at the top of the screen, it has been covered lots of time noobie :hithead: |
parts and labor, ur looking at id say 2000$ |
waste of time, waste of money. period....lock this up. |

actually its not waste of time or money especially if you already have all yuor mods into the car i mean you can do an entire motor swap with tranny for about 500 bux then all you need is pedals and master cyls and stuff which i would sell you but i already sold them to sumone you also need manual ecu shift cable and shifter assembly your talking roughly 1000 if you do it yourself thats very little money for sumtin like that |

you might as well sell your vic and buy a manual one instead. Less $$ and effort imo. |
no its not less money or effort cuz ur gonna loose money trading it in then have to pay more money for the manual its easier to just swap besides he could have mods on it and that would be loosing money. |
^^^ If he was stock, he could get more for an auto then he could for a 5 spd... He could sell his auto, and look for a cheaper 5 spd around... it would be a hell of a lot of trouble tho When i went to highschool, a guy had a 2 dr vic, he put an axelback system on it, and he revved it like it was a 5 spd all the time. He kept going on about swapping it, but it would have cost him some outrageous price, so he just kept er auto... Probably the best thing to do IMO |

yea ide say 1000 bucks for the swap is incredibly cheap... comparitively... ive looked into doing it for a supra (buy and auto for cheaper and swap it with 6 speed), and its got a good 4000-10000 dollar range on that swap. |
lol well no one rele wants the d17 except for people who actually tune them seriously. but for 1000-2000 if u include labor thats half a k swap price |
