im assuming that the starter on an auto is different than a 5speed correct? or the VE motor....

That is correct sir. The Manual starter has a clutch killswitch sorta type deal while the automatic doesn't have it. I'm not sure if the two are interchangable like if you can use an automatic starter and just get rid of the depress-clutch to start feature.

The "depress-clutch to start feature" has nothing to do with the starter. The clutch pedal has a sensor on it that tells the computer to start the engine only with pedal pushed in. I know Because you have to bypass that sensor to use remote start. I don't know if the starters are actually different though.

Oh I see, this is where I got my impression from http://www.autozone.com/servlet/UiBr...3d801f46e8.jsp I guess I read what was stated in that link incorrectly about auto/manual starters.

If you check around and call autostores, they usually asked me if I had a auto or manual so I would guess there would be a difference.

Just in passing, how much is the average starter replacement job from a mechanic?

I was quoted $240 for the starter+install I decided to save $140 and bought the starter and install it myself. Its quite EZ to do

the vg 5spd is interchangeable with a ve 5spd. same bell housing. but you want the ve 5spd because it has a limited slip differential.

so it does work for both VE and VG??? i thought it was only for the VG auto and manual.

are you refering to the starter or the trans itself?

Yourself

when i got my 91 se(vg-5sp)it had a damaged wire from the stater to soleniod so i went to pull-a-part(junkyard,you pull you save type place)and got a starter off a ve 5-sp for like 10 bucks 1\2 a year later and im still rockin it...easy install

aww come on guys, if you have a manual you dont need a starter, just pop the clutch out to start it....
