Could I call mazda and see what they would price a whole transmission kit for? lol
I have like 6thousand in bodykit and paint and I would hate to put that much more in a new one than just convert it

well, since it would cost so much to try and convert, I'd consider looking into finding OEM body kit pricing and just taking the kit you have and putting it on a MT car... that way you wouldnt lose the money in the body kit... unless you painted a color that isnt stock, in that case you'd still save a little but lost money on the paint
