I'm just curious to know how hard this is really to do? even though I like my auto, and would like a more built tranny, the 5speed seems to be more reliable?

you would need a different flywheel i think, have to route the clutch pedal and cable, umm im not sure about the little tranny ECU in the passenger side footwell, but i know you would need a M/T ECU, Theres a lot of work required to do this swap but in the end its worth it!
here is the list i had.
trans R154 or W58
flywheel
presure plate
clutch
clutch & brake peddle
clutch master cylinder
clutch line
clutch slave cylinder
M/T ECU
shifter
and a different drive shaft
few other things here and there
it took me 13 hours (2 days) to do the swap and have it driving.

actually you dont NEED it..you can run a 5speed on a A/T computer but not the other way around...
^ok then that should be easier since cost would be less and there would be less of a hassle trying to find a M/T ecu for the exact same year of the car
