What have you done to your P5 today?

DJ - Such a sweet car. I have a ? about the manual swap... Do u have a parts list of stuff needed? I live in AZ and if I chose this route I would like u and who ever did that to do my car.
 
it makes sense to me , if I turbo it I can do the MSP setup and ECU . Auto is way more expensive to tune / and tranny would still need some upgraded parts. Also if I stay N/A I can get an MP3 ECU.
 
I went from
8128_570238725349_48800484_33594752_3952644_n.jpg


to

9520_572113797689_48800484_33659261_4610827_n.jpg


Plus did the door/window trim pieces. soon center bezel will match

ATX to MTX swap list

clutch
flywheel
metal gasket between trans and motor
starter
half shaft (the 5-speed is a different length)
driver's side axle (pass is not needed)
rear motor mount bracket (not the mount, just the bracket that bolts to the trans)
rubber line between the master cylinder and slave cylinder
clutch slave cylinder
throwout cylinder
clutch line between the last two
driver's side motor mount
clutch pedal assembly
brake pedal assembly (not NEEDED, but the auto brake pedal sits only like a few mm away from the clutch pedal)
shifter
shifter actuation rod
shifter base rod
engine wiring harness
5-speed ecu

*note*
for VSS to work on an trans from a 5-speed with ABS you will need the abs sensors off the hubs...you MAY not need these if you replace the dummy plug on the back of the tranny with the actual VSS gear plug and hook it up to the wiring harness...the ABS engine harness has both the hub plugs and the tranny VSS plug, so it may read off of either of them


*another note*
thank Mazda for being cheap! they didn't even have an auto vs. 5-speed master cylinder haha...they both are exactly the same, they just throw a rubber cap over the line to the 5-speed slave cylinder on the auto hahahahaha
