Here are the pics of my car being swapped to 5 speed manual. Its finally done!! It only took about 3-4 days to complete on my back in my garage (minus the month i had to wait for other parts that i didnt know i needed to arrive).

The car all finished and one last check after its test drive to make sure everything was ok (the oil on the ground is all from the automatic tranny leaking all over the place when i took it out)
