Auto to 6speed?
#2
alot of work is needed. its almost not worth it unless ur building it for the strip almost. you'll need aton of parts like a new center console, clutch an pedal assembily. brackets for the new assembily. new brake pedal cause the manules are smaller. an a ton of other stuff.

If you have your heart set on a 6-speed, purchase a car that was a 6-speed. If you're making a car for the strip the auto is going to be better, if you're making a car to impress people (or you just really really want a 6-speed) you're better off not trying to convert the car. The T56 alone is going to cost you $1500-$2000, and that doesn't include all the other little pieces you'll need.

Going to use it mostly for everyday driving. So you think a auto will be better for the track? It feels like I have more control with a straight shift. The reason I was wanting it, I found a 6 speed transmission for $45.00

well it depends on the driver alot. if you want to drive a 6speed then do it mines a 5speed an i love it. but if the car your wanting to buy is a auto then you may want to leave it that way. cause even though its $45 its still going to take alot more money to put that manual in there. and you can still get that hard shift like its a manual with a hard shift kit they make for automatics. its not that expensive like maybe $110 or so and it only took my brother like three hours to put it in his trans am.

its worth the money and its not hard to install it. if youve ever looked into the works of a auto then it wont be hard at all but its intimadating looking if you dont mess with them much. the bottom plate is removed and it looks like a brain with all the turns an stuff but dont be scared they come with every thing you need. new bearings, release plate, templets an instuctions so that a monkey could do it. but you might want to get some grease to hold the new bearings in. so they dont fall out an ya lose them.
