auto to manual

[macvalentine]

whats up guys?
im new to the forum
wonderin how i can convert my 2.5S to a manual
if anyone can give me an estimate on how much it would be

also i need to get a left motor mount or whatever is the one right next to the serpentine belt
so if anyone got one im lookin to buy

[kasey07]

to be honest it would be alot easier and probably cost less to trade in and buy a manual while your at it get a 3.5

[Smoke05]

i second that, converting a car like this to a manual would be very expensive and a huge pain in the a$$. trade it up or suck it up

Agreed with the above 2 post. Unless you already have a significant amount of mods on the car, it would be best to just trade in the auto altima and find a standard one. Or better yet, if you are looking for a fast affordable car, get a civic SI.

vegas doesnt have any standard altimas anywhere
even the dealers all have auto

You're damn right I did. I'm stuck and I don't like it. I have this unhealthy love/hate relationship with my car. Do you really want to be on the same boat as me (and probably several other members) ?

well i love my car
why do you love/hate yours?

[RIZAMAN]

QR25DE FTL...Plus a shitload of mods...equals love/hate...

I'm not a Honder person at all, but the Si sure is a worthy (and quick) machine...

Recent thread touching on the subject..

[spike228]

Yeah what Rizaman said. That's exactly why I have a love hate relationship for it.

I love it because its my first car and i put a lot of work into it....and it looks good.

But I hate it because no matter what, its just a glorified family sedan, and the most it can be is "sporty".

i like my altima cus im old now and dont need some little kid car like a civic etc...the altima fits my age..lol

[Dexion]

Little kid car, damn you are so right. I only know like 1 guy over 21 who's got an 06+ Civic si, but if you're willing to pour some money into the Si it can give a VQ a run for the money.

Its not worth it to do an Auto to Manual swap, it will probably cost almost the same as buying the car at its current state again.

[spike228]

How does anyone under 21 afford a civic SI? do they push drugs or beg mommy and daddy? I'm 20 and it only recently became affordable to me.

mom and dad no doubt...

[spike228]

(sigh)....I wish my parents would buy me an SI. They wouldn't even finance me for one because they said I would be irresponsible with it....

[LSUtigerME]

^ And you know you would.

Sure, the altima is a FWD family sedan, but the SI is still a Civic. I don't mind Honda, but a civic is unescapable. And it's still a 4, and FWD.
