#345398 Hello everyone, well introductions first.... My names David, I'm 26 and married, I'm a welder/fabricator by trade and do light machining as well. I just picked up a 95 sedan auto non vtec from my sister in law for FREE!!! It's got a blown head gasket and was thinking of doing a 5 spd vtec swap but am unsure as to what would be the best route for me. If anyone can point me in the right direction as to what is the most California friendly swap and what's involved in a 5 spd swap I'd greatly appreciate it! :thumb: [/img]

#345401 Hey David,
The car looks good from the shots you've posted. To convert from auto to 5 speed,
engine (if you are going to do a swap) ,trani,axles, engine mounts, ECU ,SHiflinkage, auto trani mount to 5 speed conversion mount , harness, 5 speed pedals , cluster. throttle cable, clutch master and lines.

I think I have the basic they listed. Please some chime in if I'm missing anything important.

Clean car. Only some minor damage on driver door that can be replaced. Door is not pricy and you have all the moldings.
Keep putting up pics.
Thanks
