Tranny swap

if i were to change an automatic to a 5 speed, how much, approximately, would it cost, and is it too hard and not worth the trouble?

Whole 9 yards......

just do a swap...... you get into ECU/ECM **** if you JUST do the trans. its really easier to do a COMPLETE swap.

how bout an engine?

what if i got a nice low mile N/A Z, and popped in a TT engine? do they fit without too much trouble? or would it require a lot of work?

I am sick of the subject of swaps, I know drag_300japan is to. If you would like my advice, here it goes:
1. You would need a front clip, 2800$ at www.flashoptions.com
That includes the VG30DETT engine, ECU, Transmission, and wiring.
2. If you can, install it yourself, its tough **** though. Go here to learn more on that. NA-TT. That will tell you everything you will need to know.
3. Keep in mind this is a JDM engine here, so most of the wiring is going to be backwards.
Im pretty sure that website will change your mind on doing this swap! Peace
