Ok, so here's my issue...
i bought a 2001 protege lx2.0 about this time, last year.
at the time, i had barely driven at all, didn't know i'd actually LIKE driving (since all i had driven before was a Grand Voyager).
Needless to say, i'm pretty auto-illiterate.
when i bought my car, i didn't know how to drive standard and i didn't wanna learn on my new car... so i bought auto... now i pretty much have a grip on standard, and i don't like the lack of control in auto...
is it, at all, possible to change my auto tranny to manual??
money isn't too much of an issue... i'm just wondering the work related to it.. my city has some of the world's worst drivers, so the junkyard has ALOT of newer car parts, and i'm sure finding a 3rd gen. manual tranny for a 2l pro wouldn't be too difficult.
i know a few good mechs (cousins, uncles, friends) that would be willing to help assemble it all... but they all tell me it's not worth the cash..
help?
i LOVE my car.. i have a few mods to it... and i don't wanna trade it in for a 5-speed...
