hey just wondering how much would it cost for a full manual conversion to be done to a 1997 ford el fairmont sedan? I am starting to get bored driving my auto and am shifting it manually haha..
Will i have to contact vic roads and let them know its now a manual and s**t like that? thanks.. Also do i have to do another 120hours of bs driving for Auto-> Manual license ? hope not..

If you do the conversion yourself, you can pick up the parts for $400-800.
Yes, you're supposed to notify VicRoads as it's goes in the registration records. They took note of it when I did my motor & gearbox changes. If you got your P plates on an auto licence, you can drive manual or auto when you get off them. I think you're supposed to drive only cars with auto gearboxes if you did your P plate test with one. Check your licence and see if it has an 'A' on it. http://www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/Home/Lic ... itions.htm

yeah you just have to redo the actual practical driving test in a manual and they remove the auto condition.
been meaning to do this myself for months |
