Oh hell yeah!! Sweet!

We're almost there boys.

I gotta figure out what to do with my shifter. I'd like to do an auto shifter from momo but I have to move the o/d button.

Seats - Yeah, they're racing seats. I got them off of ebay.
$300

you can put a little switch in that space between the shifter and the ebrake. thats where mine was, but i cant find a pic

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Like a toggle switch or would it have to be a button switch?

 

[99ProtegeKV]

yea i wanna move mine too. idk where put it either..

[99ProtegeKV]

or just get manual lol jk

 

[xDJ DUBx]

J, you did a AT to MT swap?

 

[J_Naoto]

yes

 

[99ProtegeKV]

how much did that cost u man.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Is it as bad as everyone makes it seem? "If you want a mt, you should just sell urs and buy a mt protege"

 

[red95_240sx]

they said unless u have that whole car ur getting the mt from at ur disposal

 

[J_Naoto]

it all depends on how much you love your car. it is a lot cheaper and way easier to just get a mtx car, but in the end i dont regret it one bit.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Props to you on doing something not many of us have. I want to do a swap but I'm scared it'll just be one big mess and I'll wish I hadn't of touched it.

 

[J_Naoto]

lol. yeah, that's why i had a shop do the swap. it's the only time i've had anyone touch my car.. but i didn't wanna get stuck in the middle of it without a transmission

 

[xDJ DUBx]

How much did it cost in the end? 4k?

 

[J_Naoto]

about that much for oem parts and labor. then a little more since i upgraded the clutch, flywheel, short shifter & bushings, etc.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Wow. Worth it to you?

 

[J_Naoto]

definitely. i boosted it right after, so it was all worth it. i bought the car brand new, it got paid off so i figure why not

 

[Vocko]

Naoto you're king for doing that!
