Hey guys.
I'm planning to buy a used 97-99 CL 3.0L
I've been working to get one... I'm excited for it. ahah
And I want to purchase a manual model, but most the ones that are for sale near me and that I can afford are all automatic...
I was thinking of doing a conversion, BUT I think it'll take too much money.
So yeah. Hoping to find some cool things in this site.

Thanks guys. Peace

 

The 3.0CL only came in automatic...

The '97 2.2 and 98-99 2.3 came in manual.

Besides that read the noob guide... There is A LOT of awesome information in there... :-)

 

OH!!..kay then... ... haha

..I'm off to the noob guide... = ]

 

THE NOOB GUIDE....saving one noob at a time.

But yeah, good luck with finding a manual. If you do the 3.0 auto to manual tranny switch thatd be pretty sickk.

 

might as well just throw a 3.2 in there if you gonna do a tranny swap

 

I wonder how much a job like that would run. If my tranny goes that's what I would want to do.. :Knock on WOOD:

 

how much do you think that will cost? around how much?

 

forget it, it's been done a handful of times only. just buy a 2.x 5 speed.

 

yeah, but it's still kind of rare... to find a manual.

 

more than what you'll pay for the car. seriously...

 

words of wisdom, this man knows ^^^^3.5 swap w/ manual transmission
