Hey, No I was just trying to expand my knowledge. I am just wondering if you could do it. I don't see why not. But what would the price be? roughly.
Thanks!

Yes, it can be done. Cost about 9+ grand to have done. Search for it. Tons of threads started on this subject.

why not just get a 6MT to begin with. Seems like a waste of time and money to do the conversion when it can come from the factory that way.

Well Hero is correct. Since I said I would like to do it myself. It would cost $5000 not $9000. $4000 is a HUGE difference. But after reading the thread I think Ill just wait to find a 6MT.
Thanks for all your help guys. I could not find it in the search but I found my other questions using it.

more specifically, it was about $3k for parts/labor with a turn around time of 1-2 weeks.

you may also want to contact gurgen. he has done this to his sedan.
