Definitely my car was an automatic before i did my swap…

but if your gonna keep the motor you got…you just need a manual trans. and the manual parts…like the pedal assembly, shift linkage, ect…you’ll need to do a little fabrication but nothing that intessive. GOOD LUCK!!🆒

ok, i have an 04se-r, it has the same engine as the spec-v. the spec-v comes with a 6 speed, and some se-r come with a 5speed. the cars are 99% the same, how much $ is it roughly? should i drop in the 6 speed or 5 speed? and who can that, i can work on cars, but im not f–n with a tranny swap.

i dont see it being worth the cost to auto\>manual swap your 04 sentra. however i would have to imagine that it has been done before. have you tried searching the sentra sites?

why not save up and buy a project car? if you like sentras that much buy an older one and play with that.

i did it before in my old vw corrado. it was pretty easy just a bit time consuming. its possible, just check around see if there is a totaled one and try to snag the parts from that and go from there.
