I have a bit of a hard-shift when going into 3rd gear but I have always had this problem and it's a general problem with the sunbird's that have automatics.. But I am going to be going to a college in tampa (parents paying, along with scholarships etc) and I was wondering Should i get a new car (semi-new, it wont be anything over 14k) or Fix this car up, maybe put some new rims or body kits(i love street cars :P ) But if I keep this car, eventually I will need to of course change the transmission etc. So I was also wondering how much would it be to take the auto out and put in a manual and what does it entail? What should I look for? Thanks guys for all your help! Bloodshot P.S. long time no talk from me eh? Been busy with the hurricanes down here! :blink: :blink: :blink: This post has been edited by bloodshot: Oct 25 2004, 01:47 AM

Baby it until it starts giving you problems ... then trade the hell out of it ... dont spend any money on "fixing it up" save it and use it for a down payment (you can get a 10 year old BMW for 2500$ ). No need to upgrade until you need to.

Peace

Exactly....except for the part about the bmw :)
