It's going to end up costing you 5 times what the car is worth. If you want a manual, it would be cheaper to sell the '93, and go find one with a manual. Not only will you have to find the manual transmission, you have to find all the shift linkages, a new computer, new transmission mounts, shift lever, etc. . .Not worth it.
