I wanted to know how hard it is to convert an automatic to a manual. For an s14. Would it be better to just buy an s14 that is a manual? One more question, is it hard to drift with an automatic? Thanks

Switching an automatic to a manual isn't that hard on a 240sx. (Might be if you do it yourself...which I don't recommend unless you have buddies willing to help, and check out prices at shop) It would be better if you bought one that's manual to save yourself teh headache, unless you can't drive stick for teh time being. I would get a 240 that's automatic because they're usually in stock form compared to manual...that way you can work from scratch...a 240 is better than none. And drifting in an automatic takes some skill...but it's possible.

Oh you're new here. Word of advice: See teh flashing red search button? It's your friend...use it. If it was anyone else...you would feel teh burn of teh flame.
