Auto to Manual.

[Burgess]

G'day, I have a Automatic VY commodore, and I am fast getting kinda bored with the automatic.

What I want to ask is, is it possible to convert it to a Manual, if so is it expensive and would it even be worth it?

Andrew, the conversion is possible. However the time and money spent to have your car running a manual transmission is, IMO not worth it. Set aside $5000 for the conversion mate. Your best option is to buy a factory manual car, which are rare but well worth the wait. I drive a manual VT V6 and its great fun compared to the auto. All the best.

Yeah I thought it might cost a fair bit, and for that price it definately is not worth it haha.

Yeah finding a Factory manual one is hard, especially for under 25k.

But cheers for the info anyways.
