Hi Everyone
I havent been on the forum for quite awhile.
I have been toying with the idea of switching from auto to manual on my 95
GT convertible. Miss having a manual.What is all involved. What would i need in parts. Any modification to the tranny tunnel. Does it affect ecu? Anything else I may be missing? All advice, opinions welcomed. btw its has stock rear gears 3.23.
Thanks in advance

No major modifications, just a lot of small parts you have to find. MPS salvages cars for all the parts and sells it as a kit.

That seems a little on the high side price wise, but you can call them. It is at least a comprehensive picture of all the parts you need. Never hurts to call.

My opinion is that you should change your thread title to not include sexually gender confused humans, and call the freakin thing what Chilton‘s repair manual calls it.

How much harder is it to write 5 additional letters?

Just my opinion...

That’s just because you’re more in touch with your feminine side..

Pipe down Monkey ass.

If you paid one single minutes’ attention to anything beyond your convertible build thread, you’d know I was playing.
