Default just a question

sup everyone, this is my first post ever on TR. my friend at school referred me here.

anyways, i have a question about my car's transmission. i own a black (auto ) 1997 240sx. i planned on saving up for a full front clip which includes the transmission (i've heard), but that didn't work out because i was a dumbass and decided to run into somebody. bye bye piggy bank.

so let me get to the point, how much money would it be to do a complete transformation from auto to manual on my car. this includes the transmission, electronics, stick, etc.

i'm a car newb, so help me out. and be nice please

Jump over to Nissan/Infiniti tech forum. There is plenty of parts and advice for 240's. Also do a topic search, it's a common question.
