Transmission Upgrates for auto

[Mike]

Thank you for your insight, It seems that I really need to sit and do the math between wheater it's cheaper to source the parts, and let you attack my ride or if it's cheaper to trade my car in for a v6 6 speed.

let him attack your ride  

I'm thinking that i'm going to have to start saving coin. If i'm going to send my car down there i'm probably going to have move done than just the auto to MT swap.

If planned right we can everything in place so it would only be a 2-4 day trip for you.

There are a few other things involved with AT to MT swap when performing the swap on coupes. As far as I know (Skippy can add to this), there is an electronic intake runner control solenoid, lighter pulleys, variable and dual intake runner system, and some suspension differences. I suggest you do plenty research before attempting a swap, or just upgrade your torque converter using level ten products. I heard about some of their Corvette and Camaro projects and those Automatic cars smoke a lot of MT cars of the same horsepower and driver skill.

The runner control solinoid is NOT required, the wiring will be there with the new engine harness and if you find a MT intake it is nice, but really doesn't do a whole lot.

Oh, and I have already swapped 2 7th gens , 2 6 th gens, and 3 2nd gen TLs in the last year.......

[Blackhawk]

Not saying it was 110% required either. Just implying that if you are going to do a project, it would be nice to set everything up the way it was meant to be from factory, that's all

I am going to happily let Paul attack my car once I get the necessary $$$$

Very good information here, But with these prices i might just upgrade to a 2007 v6 6sp EXL sedan. But if i ever go through paul, it will be a 3.6l build

can we use the tsx AT with the tiptronic feature? i been wondering if that would work and has anyone done it?

[LiquidX]

A guy on v6p swapped his shifter assembly for one out of a 99 tl, i dont know whether he got the tiptronic to work, but the interior looks much nicer with the stairway shifter. I know nicepeta swapped the pedal shifters out of a tl or tl-s and got them to work on his v6.

[NVA-AV6]

No, I did not get triptronic to work properly, I needed to get the TL ECU rekeyed and did not have access to the programmer needed at the time.

Good skippy question for the 4cyl...

[Mike]

I've seen someone else ask him about this, and I believe it involved quite a bit of work, the ECU etc.

I agree with Paul about Level 10, not the best option. As for the swaps, not impossible, just not fun. Paul. I am curious, in your experience. What is the total cost, parts and labor, to do this?

I believe it was already determined that it is a waste of time and money.

To do what a V6 AT-MT conversion???
