What all is needed to switch from a 6MT trans to a 5AT Setup? Seriously considering doing this just need to know what all is needed? Thanks

 

Wtf ? Lol

 

Army Injury. Getting worse, getting harder to drive a stick.

 

lets swap.

 

Need to see how painstaking it will be first. If I decide to do so Ill post it in the classifieds

 

Um... Let's see... Sign ur title, he signs his... And um yeah you both go to the dmv and fill out "gift" on paperwork... And go on about yall ways

Honestly... It is 100% not worth to do it

BUT if you do... I call dibs on ur manual trans flywheel, clutch, pressure plate, shifter box and shifter cables

 

i think he meant just the transmissions not the cars.

 

min that I can think of off the top of my head

1. ECU
2. Cluster
3. Axles
4. Radiator (it has to have a trans oil / water intercooler)
5. Gear selector assembly
6. Exhaust pipe?
7. Engine Wire Harness if different
8. Brake pedal for auto

 

I was trying to talk some sense into him... Is real easy to just flat out trade.... Everyone who's modded their auto tl would love a manual instead... Why... Cuz auto's are crazy slow

 

why not just trade in for an auto?

 

 

If you'd like, I'd do the swap with you!

 

Lol word, as weird as this is.

But I can't believe you guys haven't asked how he is. Are you alright man? Injured one of your limbs I assume? I hope you recover quickly.

If you weren't so far, I know a bunch of people who would love to swap cars with you, or even trannys.

 

take teh trany from my RL...

it has tiptronic

 

I have a DGP 5AT, and I want a 6MT....but I'm in CT. It would be worth the drive though......

 

Seriously, I'll drive to AZ for a straight up trade.......

 

x2 on just trading cars. no point in doing that because it will cost more than a 5at to 6mt swap does and thats back asswards.

sorry about your injury though

 

first are foremost

secondly, in addition to the list above I would assume the tranny mounts as well.

 

First, thank you for serving! We all appreciate all that you have given to this country. I hope the injury was not too severe.

Honestly, I would just trade the car. I know you have probably put a lot into the car, but the amount of work, and cost involved with doing a swap of this nature, would not be worth it. If you want to stay with the TL, I would look at getting one a 5AT Type-S. Good luck with the decision and let us know what you decide.

 

As everyone said...Its more cost effective to trade than swap.

 

Trade with JMiller.

He is serious about trading.

 

 

+2

this would be a sweet deal

 

Wait, and you two are the same color? Do itt.

 

We would just have to trade out wheels and suspension, he could keep the color matched grill if he wants, I can re-do it........

 

I would just do a straight up trade but there are 3 problems...

No Nav
Front Seats are trashed and need replaced (on my list of things to do)
Car has a little cancer that needs to be filled and painted (on my list to do)

Im fine. I broke my left hip while prepping to deploy. I have 2 pins and a small plate. It just acts up alot when I do alot with it and its so uncomfortable. I may just suck it up and deal with it.

 

What color is your interior?

 

Camel Tan

 

He has that too.

Just switch seats.

 

take it to PM....closed.
