Nice car, i think with the transmission and the pedals and everything, it would come out to around $3000 (i might be wrong)

 

Really? Damn. I would have thought more like $800.

 

Well where would I start to get something like that done?

 

A friend of mine did it and he did not break 1000$ he got the tranny from a friend for about 100$ and had it installed somewhere (dont know) for about 800$ from what I remember... it is almost easier just to buy a car with a manual IMO...

 

yea good point. I never understood going thru all that trouble to make a manual out of a auto car.

 

well really around 800-1200

 

they are bad about spinning rod berrings

 

I think I might throw a GReddy turbo on my car when I get the loot. You guys think that's a good idea for this engine and car?

 

Could you explain that one for me?

 

The oiling on the rod berrings can get restricted by dirt and other objects in the oil, starving the berrings, running them dry, resulting in a failure. I know a number of them that this has happened to including my own and Tony's(forty04)
