Guest SupraTTAeroMatt Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Hi all, Just in the process of trying to save some pennies towards potentially doing a manual conversion, and was wondering if anyone had experience in doing so and the sort of costs involved?

hiten55 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 erm loads of people have done it mate do a search and you find a list of parts needed. Jezz does them (he's our resident scrappy). think parts cost £2k, plus £1k to fit as a general rule. theres also a guide on here somewhere....

Guest SupraTTAeroMatt Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 thanks all for the quick assistance, will continue with the saving (although I was expecting it to be alot more which is nice), and hopefully complete towards the end of '08! Thanks again, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuR Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 i think the title to this thread would have been better if it was "has anyone ever done a manual to auto conversion :-) out of interest has anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silly person - that's like asking if anyone has done a TT -> NA conversion! The manual box is known to be able to handle more power than the auto, plus auto supras are generally much cheaper than the manual - so you'd sell up and buy a different car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 No, they would most likely be looking to sell the manual for 20k and buying a modded auto to the same std for 12k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
