Um not sure on the prices probably $1500 for a R154 tho...they are pretty expensive, couple of hundred for the other stuff I guess.

Will need...

Manual Flywheel, Manual Brake Pedal (Auto one will be too large), Clutch Pedal, Master Cylinder, Slave Cylinder, Clutch, Pressure Plate, Throw Out Bearing, Clutch Fork, Lengthen Drive shaft...probably missed something tho!

Cheers
Wilbo

No, the auto ECU works fine... the only side effect is the overdrive light on the dash will blink constantly.

Overdrive light is easy to fix.
Just unplug auto ECU.(ECT comupter)
Won't effect car.

while this wont affect the car. i havent done it on mine because i'm not sure if the ecu changes the fuel curve (or anything else for that matter) while ECT is engaged.

can anyone shed any light on this?

oh yeah, just for reference, my auto-man conv cost about $1000, including everything.
but that is the ma61/mx73 model swap, so parts are prolly cheaper, gbox + clutch especially, but just as hard to come by
