How hard is it to swap an AT s13 to 5spd? What else is needed besides the 5spd tranny? How much do shops usually charge to do this swap?

dude, you seriously need to search a bit, every one of your 7 posts has been discussed millions of times, but as its already been 7 i doubt your gonna take my advise, so whatever but yah um heres how mine went

MT drive shaft 40 shipped
mt clutch peda,l shifter trim and boot, 60 ( plus i got brake and master included with the 60 but brake pedal was from 180sx and did not fit so i shaved mine, master was old and was from 180 so again it didnt fit right)
New master 25
new hard line from dealer 22
new ss line from hard to slave 40
clutch spec st 2 320
tranny free with sr, sr 1800 bux
mt tranny mount 20 bux

hardness has nothing to do with it, it is the skills the you have that determine how hard it is, do you have common sense, are you semi mechanically inclined, do you have a lot of money to pay a shop. but seriously I have taught myself everything that I know and it was easy so it shouldnt be too hard. just fuckin search a little bit from now on,
