Before bashing the auto swap idea, lets just say it's in my price range and that I will be getting a manual trans later on. Car has no engine or trans in it right now. Thanks guys
Ive done several auto to manual swap on R32 GTS-t's. On the reverse swap you will need:

Prop shaft
Rad with ATF sub-tanks or run external cooler
ECU and sub-harness
Crossmember
Flex plate and thin shield
Shifter assy

This list is getting long. I suggest if your hard up for auto then to scrap the OE crap and get a bell adapter to run TH350/400 trans. Atleast that way the shifter is easy and you can throw a lot of power at it.

Ive been thinking ER34 Skyline for long time now as dedicated drag car. It would have to be set up with a dedicated trans.
