Auto to Manual

This is a dumb question, and probably been asked before.. but does anyone know if an auto can be converted to a manual? I'd love to be able to drop in the 6 speed manual in my '02... the auto is starting to get to me.

P.S. I bought the car used, it was a good price and the right time, otherwise I would've searched for a manual.

possible, sure. but there is no "dropping it in." seriously, you're better off not doing
it. too many reliablilty issues after a swap like that.

I'll give you some good advice. Sell your car and get a manual. If you want to go fast, get a sports car... So far my swap is costing me abouyt 3300 and my car wont start..... good luck!
