worth it for AT to MT?

i have a 92 accord ex and am wondering if it's even worth it to spend the $$ for
an automatic to manual conversion, or if i should just buy a MT car anyway.. i
already have a few things done to this car, so it'd be a bit more convenient, but..

 

I would think it would be much more cost effective to just get a different
car. And just out of curiosity, why would you want to do this in the first
place?

 

i want more control over what my car does, and get a bit of a boost in power...
thing is, that the 92 accords aren't that easy to come by (in good condition,
anyways)..

 

While you are at it, take out the sunroof and replace the headliner.
Or investigate some medication for your condition. bob

I did this once many years ago (with a different make and model), and
would never put myself through the pain and frustration again.
Especially with a car built after 1980 (when computer emission
controls were introduced). There are just too many little differences
that come up (requiring different parts, wiring, cutting, modifying,
etc, etc). The project will nickle and dime you to death, and in the
end the car may never be "right".

If you really want an MT, then safe yourself a lot of headaches and
get a different car.

If you want a car with MT, buy one with an MT.

Of course, YMMV.

sell the AT, buy a MT car.

From the "loss" of the sale, you'll still be money ahead from all the
headaches.
