u want to drive to norcal and my bor and i could do it. we usually charge $1500-$1700 parts and labor. check a thread about a parts car that i am going to pick up in the for sale forum for 4th gens. let me know.

 

thanks for the info, i'll keep this in mind.

 

no problem man.

 

my friend did his for 700 labor, and he just needed the parts.....someone told me 800, i just need to get the parts....how much do the "parts" cost? all u need is manual tranny right?

 

Parts Needed:
5 Speed Transmission (try and get the I30 LSD or Canadian Maxima LSD if possible – doubt it)
Both Manual drive shafts (if you have ABS you need specific ones, if you don't have ABS you can use ABS ones)
1 clutch kit (clutch disc, pressure plate, throw out bearing)
2 shifting rods (support rod + control rod) (acquire used w/ all the hardware)
Return spring (connect to the 2 shifting rods (Buy this new, the stiffer the tighter your shifter feels)
1 shifter (Acquire used to get nuts and bolts (buy with the shifter rods)
1 shifter console piece (interior)
1 shift consul bracket (Replaces your auto one) (interior) (dealer name plate bolt and transaxle hole cover)
1 brake pedal
1 clutch pedal
1 master cylinder
Hydraulic lines for clutch
1 slave cylinder for clutch
1 extra set of transmission harnesses (might come w/ 5spd transmission)
1 18ga wire and wiretaps
Assorted cotter pin set.
1 Manual Fly wheel
1 Manual motor mount
Transmission Fluid (GL-4 or redline is preferable)
Locking pin and clip for the clutch pedal to the master cylinder (you could bend a nail but I would go to the dealer and pay $4)
2 nuts that fit the threads on the clutch pedal.
1 bolt that bolts in the top of the clutch pedal (the dealer can find it's size for you)
1 bolt that connects the control rod to the transmission (the dealer can find it's size for you)
1 Haynes Manual just in case you need extra help
