hey guys i was just wonderin if anyone has ever done a auto-manual swap
i have a 1975 280z and its auto right now and i wanna put in a manual. I was also thinkin a 6-speed would be cool but i dunno. how much of a pain is it to do and is it cost effective for me to do it by myself or should i just take it to a shop. thx guys
and the seats and headliner is pretty awesome also. lookin forward to seein more pics on the resto

Ok so i gave my dad my 280Z a while back and he decide to pull the motor and put in a 500hp stroked 388.... so now he wants to make a frame for it. he plans on making one from scratch that holds everything by itself and then drop the body on top. has this been done? i tried searching but couldnt find anything. is there a frame out there that fits the 280z? any info would be great.
