Tranny swap
Tuesday, October 18, 2005 12:18 PM
Ok i realized today that 3 spd. autos suck a$$, so i want to drop in a 4 spd auto. since it will be easier then a 5 spd. swap and i dont have the time for that or money. What all would i need to do that swap? and what cars can i get one out of?


1998 Sunfire, 2.2L auto

I don't know much about the swap, but I also have the 3 speed, and I have considered doing the 5 speed swap. I don't see any sense in just adding 1 more gear. And I think the only additional work of upgrading to a 5 speed would be installing the shifter, clutch, and some other minor things.

But once again, I don't know much about the subject. So don't base any decisions off of the info I have provided you. NJHK might be able to help you out more, he knows everything it seems lol.

As far as it being easier...I don't know about that. If you're doing a swap, go ahead and do a 5 speed swap.

You'll need a tranny, ecu and basically all the transmission components.
