To me it was well worth it, It was alot easier than selling my car and then having to find another with a manual tranny that I was satisfied with. It feels good and gives me no trouble. And it really wasnt that expensive.. it was only $200 dollars.

A lot of the cost of the auto to manual swaps is labor, so if he did his own then he would have saved quite a bit. I think Pete might want to talk to you about the auto to manual swap b/c i know he is looking to do one/have one done on his car.

ok let me clarify, I didnt do it myself - i had it done at a shop but at the same time the shop was doing my B20 swap, so they just decided to charge me $200 dollars more (their cost) to add the clutch, flywheel, extra pedals, mounts and all that good stuff.
They charged me so little because they messed up something of mines before and they wanted to make up for it.
