tranny swapcelicaastlye86 02-05-2004, 10:50 AM I have a automatic 1990 toyota celica st and i was wondering what all is involved step by step, and materials are necesary for changing it for auto to manual. Thank You Team_Omega1 02-13-2004, 03:10 AM honestly to tell you the truth...going from auto to 5 speed...NO!!!!!!! if you have an auto now sell it a nd just by a 5 speed...why beacuse after you do that mod to it...youll wasted a lot of time and tons and tons of money...yet at the same time have an even weaker celica...do think about it.....i have a integra ls motor but its auto...droped it into my crx thats a 5 speed...god what a waste of time...why...because the motor was set up for auto...so think about it before you do it... celicaastlye86 02-13-2004, 10:44 AM Thanx for your help i think i am going to go with what you said SigmaProjects 02-14-2004, 02:02 AM plus on FWD applications it's just a pain. jaggedyer 02-17-2004, 01:35 AM uhhhh..... 5Speeds will ALWAYS give ytou more wheel horsepower. In fact about 20 more HP to the wheels, better gas milage and more control. My dad swapped his 87 celica to a 5spd and it was pretty easy and it works fine. I cant speak for the 90 but I know the 87 fit right up with ONE mount difference. The engine on a 5spd and auto is exacly the same. The 5spd tranny just gives you more HP. Team_Omega1 02-17-2004, 11:55 PM yeah thats also true...most cars are made 5 speed...but the clutch and the other goodies are covered up...like i said before...just get a manual...its easier that way and with a 5speed...you have total control of the speed....as far as acceleration and brakind distances like down shifting to slow down vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
