Has anyone swapped their auto for a manual

Postby Fargo » Tue Jun 24, 2014 11:02 am

Has anyone swapped their auto tranny for a manual in their R51 Pathfinder? I hate auto transmissions. I'd love to put one of the manuals out of the Frontier or Xterra into my Pathfinder. But if the cost isn't prohibitive, I wonder if its even possible. Can the computers be programed to work with a manual. Anyone ever done this?

This was discussed awhile back and I believe the general consensus is that it would be too cost prohibitive to be practical.

Apparently the Aussie version came with a factory manual. . I've also thought about a 350z or g35 6mt swap
