Hey, i know what parts i will need (basically full manual tranny i.e. the tranny, shifter, clutch, flywheel/ the ecu as well)

I am getting a manual tranny and i want to put it in my car, i have read of htis being possible and i want to do it. I have a tranny which i am about to buy, i am also geting the ecu.....I have a couple of questions 1) If i do this myself how big pita is this for a rookie rookie and i mean rookie mechanic 2) Will the wiring harness have to be changed as well?

PS My tranny is on the way out its door, hence the swap so please dont flame this noob lol.

search. Theres a write up at one of my pages.

Its still being worked on. So if you can take notes and give tips etc, or contribute pics that would be great.

Its not all that hard. Everything is pretty much bolt on , only hole you have to drill is the hole for the master cylinder.

good luck

hopefully Ill finish taking the pics.

I am doing it for sure, my tranny is on it's way out and i am going to install it (going to junkyard saturday, ordering a clutch (need to research), lightened flywheel, shortshifter, and you have to have the cool shift nob = )...

I have a couple of questions, 1) Is it a really difficult swap? Should i (extremly BANME!ish mechanic) take it to a tranny shop 2) if i take it to a shop how much would the charges be? 3) I know i need a new ecu, do i need a new ecu wiring harness (wondering b/c i have afc installed)
