I've been contemplating selling my 95 SC300. Then I realized it's in perfect condition, I just put a new low mileage engine in it, and the only thing I really don't like (other than the vacuum hoses and layout of the intake) is the fact that it's an automatic. Which made me start thinking about converting it to a manual. Anyone done that with this vintage? I'm assuming that the easiest way is buying a wrecked manual tranny 95 and swapping everything... but what has to be swapped? Wiring harness different? I would assume so. ECU? Obviously having the factory pedal set would make things easier. Love to talk to someone that has done it...

search button would probably help because im sure its been covered before... ive never done it in an SC but i have done it on a supra... things you will need are

transmission
clutch
pressure plate
flywheel
clutch pedal
5-speed brake pedal
clutch master cylinder
line that goes from clutch master to trans
M/T ECU

things that im not 100% on specific to the SC are

drive shaft... in the supra i needed to swap it out because they were different lengths
wiring... with the supra there were some wiring tricks to make the car start, reverse lights work, ect

but like i said... search it... its been covered

Thanks Crimson... I did search it, but didn't find it. Guess I didn't have the right keywords in.
