so i'm gettin a 6spd swap

my tranny is giving out, and i'm gonna try and get the swap done in january. i'll let y'all know what the price of it was since i can't seem to find a thread that breaks down how much everything costs. anyway i'm excited, but nervous at the same time. the guy who's doin it hasn't done one, but he does auto to manual conversions on accords, civics, 240's, etc. so hopefully it goes smoothly.

lol, maybe he will be the first one to put together a parts and price list maybe he'll even find out about some sort of module that would save a lot of money.

the module tricks the ecu that the auto trans is still there, that keeps you from having to buy that $500 crank sensor, although i heard that the price of the crank sensor went down haha
