Look for a grey plug inside the engine bay. Located on/infront of the fender well. Unplug it, this will make the tranny shift faster and harder. This is rumored to make the tranny break faster but if you plan on swaping to a 5-speed this really isnt an issue. I did it and am pleased and have driven it for over 6 months now with no problems.

It's not rumored, it's a fact. But like you said if he's pulling it soon, go for it. Just make sure you're lined up to buy the parts before you blow the auto.

Nope, I can't do the conversion yet. I've got to pay the car off first. I just got it last year. I know the car is mainly for handling purposes. I just felt that the car seemed a little sluggish for what the motor is rated at. This is my daily driver car, I have plenty of power sitting in the garage (300zx TT). I reserve that car for the weekends though. I guess the transition from Sunday's car to Monday's car is just a little overwhelming.

Thanks guys.....I was just double checking.
