drive in, drive out manual conversion.

hi all

pretty simple, i'm looking for places who 1- specialize in imports & 2- offer a drive in, drive out auto to manual conversion for an N/A z32.



i've noticed Auto N/A's are significantly cheaper then Manuals and are quite often in far better condition.

would you say it is worth buying an Auto N/A and converting it to manual or just go and buy a 5SPD zed?


cheers

 

No, it'll cost a couple of grand (like $3k-$4k). Just buy a manual Zed to start with.

 

cheers... exactly what i needed to know.

 

You'll get a decent rebate on the overall costs when you end up selling the Auto Box though.

 

Not if it's shagged lol

 

why would you bother when theres an awesome manual NA for sale

 

And you'll get SFA for a NA auto.

Edit:

Yes, just buy Martin's. Very nice

 

i love the car and is a great example of a well kept N/A, but i just dont feel comfortable in a 2+0, to small for me.


2+2 is where its at!

 

why is a 2+0 too small, have you ever been in one?

 

fits my 190cm frame just fine , fair enough though, personal preference. I would MUCH rather a 2+0, 2+2 has a massive rear overhang in comparison which looks out of proportion IMO :zlove:

 

yep, before i bought the silvia i had a look at a couple nice 2+0's and i just didnt feel comfortable in them, i could have lived with it and eventually gotten used to a 2 seater but i prefer the 2+2.


i'd rather wait and put up with not having a car then spend my money on something i'm not 110% happy with, a 2+0 would make me 95% happy which is close but just not enough for me.

 

..the two seater boot is bigger .... !!!! ...lol....

 

yeah but the seat doesnt fold down. 2+2's are for girls anyway

 

Big girl in the front and a couple of small spares in the back ?
