Don't bother converting a car from auto that came so abundantly in manual

Unless it's a prime example or you have a huge sentimental attachment to it

Befitting of your username but each to theirs :)

Just be warned the cost is almost always more than buying. Might want to do a 5 stud conversion at the same time?

Birds, GTR's are a 2.6 Litre Twin Turbo.... They come with 5 stud hubs and big brakes.

I recommend the manual conversion and the BM Shifter Kit. You won't look back.

Head to the Drivetrain and Transmission area of the forum. 

http://www.sau.com.au/forums/forum/146-drivetrain-and-transmission/

There are dozens of threads in there regarding Auto to Manual conversions.

Most of them follow these steps:

  1. Owner of the car decides they want manual
  2. Owners of the car ignoring advice to not do it and to just buy a Manual car instead.
  3. Owner does it anyway, spends thousands
  4. Owner realises everyone else was right
  5. Owner then tries to spread their newly gained wisdom by telling others that it isn't worth doing.

You've moved past Step 1. Currently at Step 2, moving into Step 3.
But no doubt you won't be like everyone else... Step 4 and 5 were unrelated to your specific situation I'm sure.

Have you tried using the search field up the top right hand side? That would be your best bet.
