I have a 03 coupe and want to do a 6spd conversion because my car was involved in an accident lately, can anyone direct me to a link where there is a full write up on what is involved or can someone tell me what I have to keep in mind that is important for this conversion. I know you guys will think that its better off to sell the car and get another one but I got a pretty good deal on parts and labor but all I need is probably a write up or anything I have to keep in mind when I do the conversion. Thank you very much guys if any help can be provided.

Not worth it. Will not even be close to factory. It will work, but a lot of people who do these conversion always have problems.

You need a new engine wiring harness for this conversion. You can use the AT one, but there will be a bunch of "plugs" you don't need and a couple of missing plugs that you will need. You will have to ghetto rig the reverse light to come on, and you also have to ghetto rig the car start.

when this is done, you dont even need to step on the clutch to start the car. you just need to turn the key.

you also need to do some welding. not sure if the mount is the same for the AT and the MT. you probably have to cut and weld a new mount.
