it is possible.

but not something you want to do.

it will cost MORE than you go trade your car in for a true 6 speed MT.

^ECU, clutch assembly...plus all the fab work involved. Better off buying a new car.

It's not worth it. Trade it in and buy an MT 8 and you'll come out of it with a better car and not as much cost.

not worth the hassle...trade it in on a MT or even better an R3

Yeah, it is going to cost thousands and thousands... its better off you just sell your current one and buy a mt + on wanting to swap though

Or you could just do a 20B swap.

RotaryRessurrection did an AT to MT switch. Look for his threads on it.
