Hey there,
My auto is um... 2 gears less, and I've always wanted to swap over to a 5 speed manual, and wanting to buy one.

Anyway got a conversion kit lying around?

Cheers in advanced.

PS - I looked on ebay, bidded on one, I was winning, until someone outbid me, and then the seller ended the auction early....for $5 more... :evil:

Cheers, $600 for a whole conversion? not a bad price compared to what the quotes I've been getting :shock: ($1000-$1500) thats not installed.

Let me know. Thanks.

I placed a deposit earlier on today on a EA Fairmont Ghia, factory manual. I'm going to be getting bits from that. For $1000 I thought it wasn't too bad... no doors, or interior. it was "stolen & recovered"..

anyway, post up the details anyway, for anyone else wanting a 5 speed manual conversion.


Cheers
