You could pick up a cheap $1500 5spd fox and just part it out for what you need and sell off the things you dont.

or

Buy the parts piece by piece from salvage yards but the transmission will cost the most

used-$500
built-$1500

I'd really like to go with a new trans/clutch, so it sounds like the kit I posted the link to might actually be a decent deal after all? :shrug:


What do you guys think.

actually, for everything you are getting in that kit is seems like a good price. I'm sure it's more expensive than peicing the entire kit together by yourself, but this saves you time and hassle of trying to wheel and deal, as well as you will know the condition of the parts you are getting unlike taking a chance with someone's "like new" transmission off craigslist

Looks like the MPS conversion kit may be the best way to go, thanks for the help guys. :beer:

I have done this swap before, Just go find a parts car or dig through some junkyards. get a good NEW clutch, spec or centerforce and a NEW good trans. You can get a TKO600 for like $1800, a little pricey but it will hold whatever you throw at it.
