If possible how hard would it be to change a car from automatic to standard? If you had both transmissions?
Might be an obvious questions to some but i don't know if it is possible
Thanks

If you search, you'll find that many have done it, along with directions on how and what parts you need.

I found the perfect mx I want to buy but its auto
well worth it though.

Re: Automatic to standard
Its fairly easy I did it folowing atlanta mx3's write up... It was really easy because I did a ze swap at the same time. Whole project took up a weekend, thats working in about 4 auto parts store visits & 2 cases of beer for breaks. While yer doin it I'd recommend putting in new shift linkage bushings.

Re: Automatic to standard
yah, its not hard to do. i originaly did mine about 3years ago, just did one about 5 months ago for my neice's 93. didnt take long at all. there is a write up here somewhere on how to do it.
1993 White gs klze.
Re: Automatic to standard
i thought about this also...then i just bought a 5spd...you're going to spend enough time doing an engine swap (if you're planning on it) that wasting time installing a clutch pedal and all the other things needed, its just not worth it...unless you're up for the challenge
