Which is more unique in your opinion:

TT conversion with Manual

or TT swap with Auto?

I'd say TT with Automatic.

Just out of curiousity, why are you asking? Most people would ask *what should I do to my car? etc. etc. etc...* this is just the first time ive heard someone ask that question. Well, back to topic, IMO the most unique power adder done here in the US is the 1JZGTE swap.

I dunno, I was just thinking about it the other day. I know what I want to do to mine, but I have NO cash for it....... crap, I forgot the 1JZ. Well, I guess my poll is limited to originally USDM parts, then? Whateva...

I think it's a no brainer... GTE with a manual tranny because a 5-spd manual is rarer on stock coupes, otherwise you have to throw out an additional six large for a new Getrag. Not everyone has that money and thus it will be more unique.
