Default 6-speed conversion

I was wondering if anyone could suggest a shop that can do this conversion for me or even sell me all the parts i would need. Im sure i could do it myself but if the price is right ill just let a shop do it. Anyway im in jacksonville and am willing to travel to cen fl but dont know any good shops. Let me know. thanks

It will be less expensive for you to find the parts your self and then do it your self. I would look in the classified section to find a complete set .

We can take care of it. I would start looking in the sale section. There are usually 1 or 2 conversion set ups for sale.

Once you do the conversion, does anything need to happen to the computer? or since there is no longer an automatic, it doesn't matter? Would it throw codes that need to be tuned out?

Always been interested in it for my car.

K thanks for the response. I kinda thought you would have to but I wasn't completely sure. Figured if you didn't it would throw a heck of alot of codes for the tranny missing.

It will also throw the speedometer way off until you have the computer reflashed. Mine was reading like half of what it should have until I had it reflashed.

You have to wire it for the clutch pedal neutral switch and the switches on the trans.
