      it can be done in a weekend. my lest favorite part of the swap was the clutch lines and master cylinder install. you also have to switch the brake pedal or trim it. good luck you'll be happy you did it in the end!

      I'm the world's slowest shade tree mechanic! I already have done the pedals swap, and have all but the dampner-slave cylinder line installed now. Just fighting to remove the auto now!

      good luck to you my friend. much rather deal with a clutch than torque converter.

  3. I feel like my truck should be sponsered by PB Blaster...

  4. So a 96+ 5 speed should fit my 95 VG30 and have the correct fill hole?

  5. Today i started college for the first time in a decade!

      Meh, looking into a cleaner 94 with a stick shift. Would then make Apathy the parts truck lol.

  8. So I've added a transmission cooler and relayed my headlights. Wonder what other things need "fixing" that should have been taken care of at the factory. :)
