best swap for you depends on budget, plans for the car (drag, auto-x, daily driver)

While doing a swap is a good time to convert to manual :thumb:

swap to 5 speed

auto b series can only hold up to so much ( i think 200 hp? then slip and break)

Well I took a trip to buy Sol seats for real cheap and the guy I bought them from had a auto sol with a H22 in it looked nice until he opened the lambo doors and it had fake mugen race seats a chrome steering wheel (pretty much a ricer in my book) but yea I truely hate auto id say right now best bet is a 5spd dseries swap (just the trans linkage etc ) this is going ot be a good thing yes you may have beaten a 5spd car but none the less 5spd is the way to go more control and better gas mileage
