AT to MT conversion? - Toyota Yaris Forums

bronzebullet232 · 03-15-2010, 01:08 PM

Hey Ladies and Gents,

I am sick of driving an automatic. Has anybody done an automatic to manual conversion? Would you be able to do a trans swap off a first gen xb?

I understand it would be pretty labor intensive, but it has been done in tons of other cars, so why not a Yaris? I have a 2010 3dr LB

i dont see that becoming a HUGE issue but the ecu/key flash is.... plus once you calculate in labor if your not a guru yourself your looking at between 5-7k....... might as well trade and buy MT if thats what you want to do.

Strip your mods and sell it privately then buy a manual model = save $, time and grief.
