VX executive sII 3.8L 2002
Hi guys,
I currently have a 2002 vx executive 3.8L 4spd auto, but I'm looking to convert it to a 'getrag' 5spd manual..
i have 2 things to ask about this;
1. Has anyone ever had any issues/problems either during or after doing this conversion?
2. with the current diff ratio (I don't have a clue what it is, im presuming it is still the stock ratio), would i have to change it to make it drive a little better? i want it to be quick off the line but i dont want to be revving the snot out of it trying to drive on the freeway.

anyone who can help or give me a heads up on anything will be muchly appreciated.
thanks, Aiden.

It'd be cheaper and easier to sell your car and get a 5spd s-pak or something.....
