Hi I have a 2003 Mazda protege with the 1.6L motor mated to the 4-speed automatic. I want to do a 5-speed manual conversion however I am curious as to how difficult it is? Anybody know of any barriers I might face such as cutting into the firewall and problems when replacing the ecu? I searched through the forums however no similar swaps were done so could somebody help me out?
Also the reason im doing the swap is the transmission lags between gears and before I go rebuilding the transmission I really would rather do the conversion to a 5-speed.
