It all depends on your luck.

I'll break down what I paid and where I got my parts:

S13 5speed transmission, Clutch pedal & bracket, driveshaft, shifter, used clutch, pressure plate, all manual bolts, manual tranny mount, manual cross member, manual speed sensor, clutch master & slave cylinder, clutch hard & soft line, manual transmission dust plates, shift knob, center console trim and shift boot

^ I got all this for $170, but I had to pull it all myself off of some dudes parts car^

B&M short shifter $200
Transmission overhaul (bearings & synchros) $500
New slave $30
New master $30
Auto to manual stainless steel clutch line $25
White bunny Exedy clutch kit $115
White Bunny flywheel $50
Nismo trans mount $30
Motul 75w90 trans fluid Gl-4 $30
Brake fluid DOT3 $8

So, in my case I decided to knock out a bunch of small upgrades while I was at it. I ended up spending somewhere around $1200 to convert my auto to manual with the listed upgrades as well. In the end it's worth it to me. But as you can see I could have done this conversion as cheap as $170. it's all up to what you want to do.

Sure $1200 is a lot just to make an auto manual, but I'm still glad I got an auto. It's so much cleaner than manual 240s around.
