Hate your Automatic Transmission? Swap it to a Manual! Each day of the week, you shift your car from “P” into “D”, feel the thud of your tired automatic, and cringe at the thought of letting a car shift for you. В When you originally bought the car, you thought the automatic would suffice, but you’re an automotive enthusiast for god sakes, and driving an automatic just isn’t the same as ripping through gears at an rpm of your own choosing.
В В I too was once in your shoes, and I have shared in your daily suffering. В Don’t worry, you are not alone. It began when I noticed an ominous amount of written warnings from the local law enforcement accumulating on my refrigerator. В Obviously not my fault though; it was due to my car being far too enjoyable to drive, and thus not allowing anything but spirited driving.

В В I didn’t want to have the car non- driveable for more than a day. I also had a bet with a friend that I couldn’t allow myself to lose.)That special Saturday finally arrived, and as crazy as it sounds, the swap was as easy as removing all the old stuff and bolting in the new stuff. В It was smooth, and trouble free, likely due to my obsessive planning. В By the end of my 8 hour non- stop wrench- fest, the swap was complete. В Overall, I couldn’t be happier with it. В Not only did my love for my daily driver improve 1. I gained 5 mpg! В Did I win the bet you ask?
