OK, well I'm pretty set on doing a automatic to manual conversion on my talon. I need the parts to do the swap, and i would asume that it would be easiest just to get a whole car with a blown engine or something. So I'd like to buy a 7-bolt parts car w/ everything to do the swap, or if you know you have everything i need, that would work too.

start calling junk yards would be my first guess(car-part.com). other than that good luck biggthumpup.gif car-part.com

Spend some time looking through ebay and dsmtrader.com. your best bet is find one in a junkyard somewhere and just get the whole car, might be cheaper that way. I imagine all the parts are the same except tranny between a turbo and N/A car. Did you get the link i gave you on one of your other threads? it gives you a list of everything you will need.

If you felt like being real ambitious, you could try and do the turbo motor swap too.

If your tranny is actually bad, this is probably your best bet. Dont waste your time and money rebuilding an auto. I made that mistake and wished i junked the car now.

I have been thinking about parting out the gst. Tranny, shafts, clutch assembly, pedal assembly.

only problem with the gst is that its a 6 bolt and my cars unfortunantly a 7, so i'd have to find a different flywheel.

turbo-ing it would be good too, but dont know what the parents would think about that sad.gif

my step dad just called me tellin me to look up how much a 93 civic is worth. i dont want it, but the more i think about it, it is reliable transportation, and no it will have no body kits, wings, black hoods when the car is a diferent color... hmm, well i'll just have to see how things go, and im keepin my eyes open for manuals. biggthumpup.gif

I should have the remnants of a 5sp parts car, a manual tranny, and a spare 7 bolt flywheel on hand.

PM me if you need details or want to work out a deal.
