it will cost alot a stock 6-speed supra trans are very expensive and rare there is only one on ebay and they want almost $4000 for it. also you need tuns of other stuff, ecu, driveshaft, clutch pedal and cylinder, there is alot more anyway even if you looks for used and cheep parts you will end up spending almost $8000. i would sell that supra and buy a manuel one. but if you are going high power the autos are good that trans is rock solid for high HP. but manuel is cooler
i think there are less parts if you have a non-turbo and you might go with a old 5-speed trans which is much cheeper might be able to get it done for $3500 yourself
The auto supra is a nice car and the auto set up is great.
If the car is running right then the auto will be rapid and great fun.
The term auto covers many fields and in many cars offers a well responsive car which is faster than a manual version.This is shown with many modern auto setups like the veryron amg gt-r enzo 911 evo x etc etc.
Can you convert it yes you can,http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APodwSGC9…
Possible, but impractical. This question gets asked about many different cars and the answer is always the same. The pedal assembly, linkage, shift lever brackets, boots, possible drive shaft mods, etc. plus changes in sensors and computer connections make it a very difficult (expensive) thing to do. It is less expensive to trade the automatic equipped car for a manual equipped one. BTW: What “advantage” are you referencing? An automatic can be set up to be competitive against a manual. (in the right hands!)
it is possible but its a pain. you have to change the computer cut a hole in the fire wall for pedals, cut holes in the floor for the shifter. there is alot of work involved and if done on your own it will be like 500 from a junkyard but a mechanic will kill you on hours because it takes forever. you are better off buying one with a stick. hope this helps sorry to be a debbie downer.
you’re not losing turbo spool with an automatic as opposed to a stick shift though…
It is possible. thousands of dollars!
