Has any on on the list converted a turbo wagon to a 5spd?

Cost estimates? I am looking at one I found on ebay and wondering what the cost would be to convert it to a 5spd?

Worth the $$ and trouble?

Cost would probably be in the $1000-$1500 range, or maybe even less if you did it yourself. Most of that price is labor.

really need to know if you're doing it yourself or paying someone and if that someone is willing to give you a good deal.

 

are you sourcing and buying all the parts or can you pick up a cheap donor complete parts car as well? the parts vary greatly depending on this and also how long you have to do this project. if you want it done quick that doesn't lend itself to sourcing cheap parts.

 

you can do a swap for very little if you're doing most of the work and are good at sourcing parts. i've done swaps essentially for free unless you count a brand new clutch kit and standard maintenance/replacement items like that. price goes up as you drift from that....
