Default Turn Automatic Eg into k20 manual

I found a eg shell for very cheap in good condition only problem is it's a damn automatic, how much work/time/money am i going to spend just to convert it to a manual?

I want to do a k20 swap but if i can't afford it i'll just go type r or something even cheaper.

its not hard to convert to manual at all. but if you don't know you can afford a k swap you can't.

well i would scrap your s2000 front end conversion first, then save up for this. Unless you were planning on doing all of it anyways

for that particular chasis its easier to swap in a k if you have no welding ablity. my freinds/neighbor/and father all built a 1 off braket to get a b in a auto chasis i found, we just ground off the paint and used e-6010s reverse pol

not pretty welds but only 1 of us knew how to tungsten(nobody had a tig machine around) and we did not have any argon/wire left

edit: scrap pass side mount. convert pedals, bolt on mounts. new harness etc its alot of work. im going through a build right now.

most people will tell you its expensive giving you a figure for a shop to ddo it

a direct proportion of how much you do and how much a shop does is with cost

ie you do nothing itll cost you

you do 99.9 percent itll be cheap

also you need hook-ups in the scene GET A JOB at one of these popular socal shops talk to everyone and anyone dont be a prude and youll make freinds in the scene lol

oh ya and NEVER say you're better or quicker than anyone else LOL
