Auto to manual conversion

cooper323 · November 6th, 2007, 02:18 PM

I've been looking around at some websites for a decent deal on a 06 Mustang GT 5-speed manual transmission, and looking to convert my 06 v6 to a manual. Along with the transmission i understand i'd also need a clutch, pedal, shift knob, and a Shift Linkage, but i don't know what else to get and that's where i need help. what other parts am i going to need to buy and will the 4.0L be compatible with a stock GT tranny? thanks guys

Does this also apply in reverse? My wife almost refuses to learn to drive my 5-speed. She wants an automatic.

what apply in reverse.

elaborate

To turn a manual into an automatic. My wife hates manuals. Unfortunate, because I love them.

I say do it so your wife cant drive the car :wink

Averlus · November 7th, 2007, 06:54 PM

It's already a manual. She's trying to get me to take it back to the dealer for an auto.

El_Cangri · November 7th, 2007, 07:04 PM

NO maintain it manual...

the car is on your name is it?

if its under ur name... well maintain it the way it is!

Averlus · November 7th, 2007, 08:15 PM

Yep, it's in my name only because we didn't need to add her name to it. My credit alone was good enough to finance it. Yay for me.

El_Cangri · November 7th, 2007, 08:31 PM

yay for Averlus!

its ur car so do what u want with it u drive it!

Averlus · November 7th, 2007, 09:30 PM

This is me purdy baby.

Anyway, I guess that means I don't necessarily have to shift when it's at 2K.

Now I just wonder...how long does a typical clutch last? What if you're bad at it? And what do you know about the Kevlar clutches?

El_Cangri · November 7th, 2007, 09:34 PM

my clutch lasted 100k miles

SPEC is a very well know brand and the best if not one of the best

you'll need a different radiator and everything

changing tranny requires a lot of cash and time.. and bunch of parts in some cases...
