I need someone who knows their stuff.
Ever since I picked up my '05 in '10, I've always wanted to do a manual swap.
I've had my buddy who works at a dealership tell me there's never been a
record of my ST ever having had a transmission flush...and I was at 105k
when he told me....the previous owner had everything done at the
dealership, but no trans flush.....he basically said if they do the flush, it could
never work again....and obv if that happened, I would need a new trans...so
here I am at 120k, and he said it'd probably go out around 140-150...
I don't want to sell her. I literally haven't sat in anything that fits me as we'll
as my ST does....so if I'm spending upwards of $2000, I don't want another
auto.....so here's my question. Save for the transmission itself, a new cluster,
A new column, and pedal replacement...what do I need extra?
And the big question......is this even worth it? I've always wanted my trac
manual...but if I can't pull this off...I might have to sell her....and that woud
absolutely break my heart.
