Jigoku Z Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Hello... Right now I'm trying to gather parts for a 5 Speed conversion. This will be done myself. Right now my main problem is gathering parts. Can anyone here supply me with the conversion information? Like which 5 speed I need to get and what to look out for.... any inpus will be appreciated greatly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBE555 Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 My question is, do you have a lot invested in this model, mods, etc? Might be better off just trading off for a model that came with a manual. That is what I have been told is generally the better route I'm told. I haven't seen an exact list of parts needed as it can be a lot of little bits of this and that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigoku Z Posted September 1, 2004 Author Share Posted September 1, 2004 I just got the engine rebuilded. I haven't invest any in the car except for the engine rebuild. I have thought about trading it in. But I'll look around first and see how much the parts for the conversion will cost first. If it's too much, I'll just trade it in....

SUBE555 Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 DM............. :twisted: My question is, why was it rebuilt? Head gasket? Other? Or was this a performance upgrade type of build? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigoku Z Posted September 2, 2004 Author Share Posted September 2, 2004 It had a blown head gasket... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBE555 Posted September 8, 2004 Share Posted September 8, 2004 Well if it was just that and no damage per say, I would trade-up for a model with a 5MT. Much easier IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
