Manual Conversion

How much would it be in parts to get a manual conversion and how much would it be to get it fitted??

If its reasonable, i could sell my FIVE speed TIP, to get the manual. Hoping that i could get quite a bit on the tip since its 5 speed.

1) first, good luck finding a manual tranny (in good condition)...
2) be prepared to pay about $1.5K for the job (at least i'd presume)
3) are you prepared to spend that money just to shave several tenths off the accel. times or to keep your left foot busy on traffic?

For the hassles you'll go through, it will be far easier and quite probably cheaper, just to sell your auto and buy a manual.

it's much cheaper and simpler to just change the front-end styling if you really fancy the look...

oh btw did i mention I have a type-R bumper for sale?

sorry, no i don't... maybe you could convince Eric to let you borrow his version-R wing so you can make a mould out of it whilst he gets his car repainted?
