i looked into this dude, to do a proper conversion you need a lsd box which will set you back a fair bit, in the end i worked out it'd be cheaper to buy a manual car and sell the auto.... i bought a manual, just not a naturally aspirated one ;)

but all the same, if you love your car that much, go ahead, i think i roughly worked it out to be around $2,500 for a parts, ie. proper clutch & box, slave, pedal and a few other bits and pieces.
What do ralliart do??? make stickers???

Just get someone to crash into the back of your auto car....then spend three months farking around trying to get your insurance cash back....while you are paying interest on a loan to get  A MANUAL CAR!!

Its the way I did it!

yet another victim of the 'fuck, i thought auto would rock' disease
just sell the auto and get a manual, unless you really love your car or have a few mods done to it.
