Ok, so I have had this idea for a while. I would like to convert my 01 Aero from automatic to manual trans. Im no stranger to wierd swaps, having done a 4-cyl/auto to V8/manual swap before (and fitting brakes from one model of car to another). But I havent done something like this on a modern car like a 9-5.
Known parts needed:
Shifter & cables (including console?)
Transmission (easily found from site sponsors)
Clutch pedal, master, and tubing
The part Im fuzzy on is computer related. Do I need a different ECM? Can a reflash of my existing ECM solve that part? Is there different turbo control hoses/piping. Other wiring that needs to be swapped?
I know, some of y'all are going to tell me to just go find a manual car. For one, they are hard to find around here (KC area), and also I know the maintenance history of my car...
