1992 mx3 v6

Post by fletch65 »

hi, anyone know if a 5 speed swap from auto will fit o.k. ? on the auto tranny ,the starter is under the intake,right side of housing, and on 5 speed it is left of the center of the bell housing. it really shouldn't matter, right? and would i need any of the wiring from the donor car, or just swap tranny and go ? thanks for any help guys

fletch ;)

Swapping over to a standard trans is a lot of work.
Some have suggested selling the auto and buying a standard MX-3 unless your MX-3 is in really nice shape.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.
