My automatic transmission just went out, again. This one I put 15,000 miles on before it went out...Im tired of buying automatic transmissions so I figured I would swap it over to a t5!
I Landed myself a 93 off craigslist for only $300 and started tearing off parts!
I'm using this as a guide to do the swap! Have everything minus the clutch pedal assembly that I'm waiting for on ebay!
Auto to 5 Speed Tranny Swap
So far I only have one question...the donor car still has a computer in it, and the guy I bought it from says it is still good and that I should swap it with the computer in mine after I do the swap.
My car is a 92 Automatic, the donor car is a 93 Stick. They are both the 2.3 N/A engines.
Is it as simple as switching out the two computers? Are they compatible? Or is this even necessary? The guide I'm using mentions nothing of swapping out computers...
So...your input would be greatly appreciated!
