hey guys im thinking of a manual conversion for my ef fairmont.
before i shop around for quotes i thought id ask here first. Roughly how much would the whole job cost? and is it worth doing?
If anyone has previously done a manual conversion to their car some feedback on how it went would be awesome.

i know its ya first post dude...but have a search this has been covered tonnes... your lookin bout $1250+ i think.

Most members on here will encourage the conversion.

Spot on (as usual ) Big Kev . Slushboxes are for lazy fat bastards like Toddy! Go the manual and you will never look back!

OUCH $1250???

Im gonna do the manual conversion when i blow up the autobox .

As it goes its good to shop around because i know that in SA there are a few wreckers that will do a manual box for $450, a pedal box for $90 changeover and then u need the ecu which is $100.

But when my old work gets one in they will give me a call cause i can get the box for $250-$375, pedalbox for $50 changeover and ecu dirt.

Hope it helps.

But as far as complete conversions kev is on the mark

i know this thread is a little old,

but i have a question for stomper

where in SA can you get these manual boxes for around the $450 mark
