well i found a guy over at the other org that has everything i need for the swap inlcuding the axel.

he said $200.

200 is fucking great deal if that is everything you need. can we have a list of the parts he is selling you for that price? that way we can tell you if that truly is everything.

There has got to be damage to something for that price. Last time I looked, doing the swap cost around 500-1000

this is what he said

"of what i have i have the tranny the drivers side axle. the pedal assemblie,the shifter assemblie,various nuts and bolts but from atx to mtx their the same. then only thing youll need is a clutch cable and possible shifter cables."

You will need a tranny mount because it is different from ATX to MTX....

is this shipped or local pickup? if it is shipped price then there is something wrong because this will cost at least 100$ shipping,,,,,,,,

I'm not sure if you will need a new PCM or not, some other people might know more about that .......

Yes you will need a new pcn but that sounds like an almost compleet setup, what year is the tranny, and what geering dose it have, 394 or 355? You will also need various sensors but you can find them at the local boneyard.

it isnt shipped, he lives aprox 30min away from me.

so not a big deal to go get it

Id say its good.

I once paid $50 for a compleat tranny swap. Tranny, axle, cables, nuts/bolts, everything. And it was all in perfect working order. The clutch wasnt even fully broken in yet, since it was replaced before the car was rear ended.

They can be had cheap. Just a matter of luck.

Not to be rude or anything, but do you even have any clue as to how to swap the trannies? And for that matter, have you thought about how much it could end up costing anyway? What about the warrenty? I know you asked about it but still?

in his case, id say hed be better off trading for a used 5 speed.

in the case of my white car, its getting a swap. but thats my case.

Yes TNK You can use the atx pcm but your spedo will not work (something with the speed sensor being diff on the mtx) that is why you neex the mtx pcn + additonal sensors.

i do not nkow how to do the swap but a guy who i met on neons.org lives 20mins away from my house and said he would come over and do it for me.

Arn't the trannies in the 03+ differant then 02-. I know the PCM's are. If that be the case make sure it will work.

What year is the trans from? 2000 was a cable-operated clutch. 2001+ was hydraulic. To my knowledge, the pedal assembly for the 2000 is 2000 specific (someone correct me if I'm wrong).

The 5-speeds should be the same for 2001+. I believe the only difference was the differential pin tabs installed on the 04+ trans, but they're identical externally.
