54802, Auto to 5spd Conversion...good or bad idea?
Posted by Jproduktion, Aug-08-03 08:42 PM
Yea, ive been really thinking about it, I dont mind the cost, but Im worried about installation and is it even worth gettin? or would buying a new 2g thats already 5spd be a better idea?...Ive driven manual a few times, but Im not natural yet, I dont mind learning either...So lets hear some opinions? good or bad?

Wrong section bro. Try Performance/Engine. I don't feel like logging in as Admin to move it, so this is just a heads up. Someone will get it...

but untill it is moved....yeah its definately worth it. Your car will be quicker, and alot more fun to drive. It is to my understanding that hte AUTO dsm's are about 1 sec slower in the 1/4 then Manuaul's. Do it up mang :thumbsup

I think its worth it.I did it to my car about 7months ago and it is alot more fun to drive and alot quicker than it was.The only problem I have know is my speedo isnt working.But yeah I would say go for it plus its alot cheaper than buying another dsm thats a manual.
