Default trans swap auto to manual?

hey guys, 99 a4 1.8tq tip. now she only has 40k on her and the trans is fine. i plan on keeping the car for a while and i was thinking should the trans ever go on it i would like to put in a 5 speed. has anyone ever done this? if so, how hard is it to do, if it is possible at all. what new parts would you need to do the conversion? or is it just too expensive to be worth doing?

Too expensive...better off selling your ride and getting a stick.

I heard the cost will be over 4k... Most of the cost comes from labor.

Default I am in the same boat as you

But, I plan on swaping in a RS2 6 speed tranny instead. That is why I havn't botherd to sell my car and buy a five speed. Because even if I bought a five speed I will stil want to end up switch to the RS2 six speed.<ul><li><a href="http://www.audituning-usa.com">for info of the RS2 six speed check out these guys</a></li></ul>
