My sc300 is an automatic and is killlling me, so how much is it gonna cost me to do the swap to a manual? its a 92 sc300 and i dont really care if its a 6 speed or a 5 speed just cant take driving an automatic anymore and not taking full advantage of the possibilities of my car. And also if someone knew where i could find one in washington state that would be awesome.Along with rhat maybe somewhere that does the swap after i find everything? thanks

If you take your time and look for deals, you can do the swap for a reasonable amount.
What someone I know paid:
400-W58 tranny, clutch, shifter and flywheel
120- Front portion of the driveshaft ( usually go for $75 shipped)
275- Pedals and master cylinder (used)
30- 2 qts MT90 fluid
35- Slave cylinder (Driftmotion)
20- Flywheel bolts
15- Pressure plate bolts
50- Braided Clutch line (Driftmotion)
Free- auto tranny cossmember
$945- Total
Extra:
650-TT auto LSD 3.76 Usually cost up to $1000
1595- Total with LSD

here is my breakdown of my 5spd conversion. i just finished it earlier this month.
i think i personally got a pretty low overall total cost.
i also think i got lucky sourcing everything within as short of a time frame as i did.
Purchases:
w58 trans + front driveshaft + stage II clutch/flywheel + shifter = $650
clutch pedal + master cylinder (no need for brake pedal, just cut auto pedal) = $120
Clutch line = FREE
BNIB shifter boot/bezel from Driftmotion = $65.45
Maintenance related purchases:
BNIB carrier/center support bearing for driveshaft = $64.50
Gear oil = $28.25
Throw out bearing = $29.79
Input shaft seal = $3.59
Personally did the entire install with help from a friend, so no labor cost! =)
Totals:
$835.45 and $961.58 with maintenance.
Conclusion: Shoot for $1000 and below without labor cost. I'd say for labor, double it. GOOD LUCK!
