My suggestion is sell the motor and tranny to me ![Big Grin](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
How much did you pick them up for?
As for the tranny, Ive heard that its a pain in the *** to swap in the manual if you dont have the 5 speed version. I belive that powerhouse racing wont even swap the 6 spd into the manual (if not powerhouse it was another place that does swaps.)
I think it would be fun having an auto with mad power, it would be fun to race with, while hes busy intensly shifting, your sippin on a slurpee or somethin
. Wouldnt you feel like a damn fool getting your *** beat by a man holding a drink? ![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

With the auto you won't need a blow-off valve,since you don't close the throttle when shifting.

Jason, I think you ment to say that powerhouse racing won't swap the 6sp in unless you have the 5sp -- they won't even touch the AT.
