How much would it cost to swap an auto tranny in an 89' 240sx to a manual tranny.
LMK please, Thanx

 

Well it's not just the Transmission, you also have to buy a clutch pedal, and cut a hole through your firewall, and convert the center console to a 5 speed shifter. You should have just bought a 5 speed if thats what you wanted. It's a headache.

XAT charges an extra $500 to convert an auto to a 5 speed, but only when they are doing a swap.

 

I didnt buy an auto but my uncle has a nice 240 in great shape the only problem is its auto and i was thinking of buying it and converting it to manual i was just trying to see how much it would cost me to do it but if its to much of a hassle than i will just buy a 240 that already has a manual tranny.
Thanx for the info

 

xat does the full swap, with tranny and all labor for 1600 dollars, check them out at www.xatracing.com

 

we do 5spd conversions too... call us 727 572 4340

let us know if u have parts, or if u need parts and labor done..

 

it's easy if you can turn a wrench. find a parts car and get all the stuff from it. hardest part is cutting the stupid clutch master cylinder hole.

 

Thanx for all the help but it sounds like it would be a lot less hassle if i buy a 240 with the manual tranny already in it. Once again thanx for all the help though.

 

it takes no more than 6 hours to swap it.

 

its well worth the effort. you need the clutch, flywheel, MT bolts, hydrolic lines, MT dust plate, get a new master and slave cylinder for $50, trans, clutch fork, new fork and TOB spring (i can get them cheap for you), new TOB ($30), MT tranny crossmember, MT driveshaft, and possibly a couple other things. ill do it for $200 labor plus $30 for flywheel resurfacing. just need some up front so i can get a mini tool to get the job done easy.
