if you are serious about this, contact daveb the parts guy (check the FAQS) to find out everything you need, every part. its not gonna just be a trans swap. then call local shops to find out what they will charge.

this place is in NJ and says $450 for most cars. so add $500 to whatever dave tells you for all the parts, and your lookin at a pretty heft conversion.

$1000 to install a functional 6 speed in a car that was built with an auto? LOL, not a chance in hell. If your car had a 6 speed stock it would cost $1000 or more to get a rebuilt/junked 6 speed in there. Unfortunately the conversion will add _considerable_ labour to that, so for $1000 it's simply not possible unless you can do the work yourself, which I suspect you can't (hey, it's pretty hard - I'd have no idea where to start) since you're asking
