I have a 2005 G auto the reason i bought the auto is cause for a turbo if you have auto/triptronic it helps on the lag but im wanting to just go ahead and transfer to and full manuel 6spd gear box and everything. now to my question does anyone know a legit answer to this question please help what all do i need to buy and what would be the final outcome price come out to or close too? thanks

 

You are probably better off selling your car and buying a 6SPD.

 

ha no can do i have too much in it already, and i mean triptronic i beat so many cars that are manuel cause i get perfect shift everytime but i would like a 6spd. any idea how much it would be i know new trans. and all that so what like maybe 3500 dollars i can get a hookup on the trans?

 

You must have raced people that learned how to drive stick on there first day.

 

Good luck

 

Too many variables, but I can tell you 3500 is not even close. I think GTM was once offering a turnkey transmission conversion somewhere in the $10-$15k range, other people on this board have done it for $6k including labor, if I remember correctly.

But again it all depends on factors like your location, what shop you're going to, how much of the work you're going to do yourself, whether you're buying new or used parts, aftermarket or OEM, miscellaneous unforeseen costs which always pop up in something like this, etc. I would say find your nearest reputable shop and let them tally it up for you...I'll tell you one thing though it isn't going to be anywhere near 3500.

Unless you have some super extensive work (built engine, widebody) on your 5AT, I'd swap out the parts and buy another car. But honestly, I'd just keep the 5AT; changing your transmission just isn't worth the $$ you'd lose in the process. And this is coming from a guy whose had 2 5AT G35's and a 6MT.

 

Your post confuses me:

You say you race lots of manual trans cars, with yours being auto.
I'm assuming you then have done a vb upgrade?

If not, I find it very hard to believe you're beating so many manual cars (in the sake of thinking these are all cars that have same if not similar power/weight ratio), since these cars are drive-by-wire and have lag.

VB upgrade eliminates that and then some.

 

Too much headache and expense to modify 5AT to 6spd. You might be better off just buying a manual G.

 

Remove all your parts, sell the G, buy a 6mt. Install back the parts. Done.

I converted my teg from an auto to a 5mt. Actually, I let a friend do it. Took him 3 days. Bought all my parts at ebay and the dealership. In the end, the car ran perfect and was a lot more fun to drive...

But good luck trying to do the same to a G....

You're going to need a custom tranny mount since the new tranny isn't going to use the same mounting point. You will also have a few extra wires hanging around and your check engine light with come on. Unless you get a new ecu off a 6mt.

 

people who buy autos are women period...who the frigg buys a g35 coupe in auto??? seriously cmon guys grow a pair

 

You're either

1) 16 years old
2) Mentally retarded
3) Have deep rooted insecurity issues
4) All of the above

Care to enlighten us which one you are?

Not true. My mom has a friend who is a 50 something year old woman who drives a 350z 6mt.

I guess the new r35 is for women too, according to you.
