Any cars other than the Camaro that have a 3.8 and 5spd
As above. I'm looking to replace my DD because its about to kick out its second auto trans.
I'm wondering what cars have a manual trans and the 3.8

rebuild
It would cost about $3k to have a shop put a new M5 in your current car, that is most economical way, rather than selling it and buying new. That's what I would do since I have a lot of investment in making my car personilized.
But I can think of
Mustangs
Pontiac G6 - is a nice car
camaros, firebirds
mitubishi eclispe have 3.0 v6 but no torque IMO
Hyndai tiburons come with v6 in the upgraded model, never drove one thouth
Honda accords
Nissan Maximas
look at dodge cars, they've got some cool stuff.
The camaro's & firebird's are hard to beat though, they've got more torque than anything.

shift kits are made for automatics. not 5 spd manuals.
only thing you could really get for a manual would be a short throw shifter, so once again I dont think you know what your talking about. much like the time you said LS1 autos were A6 trannys.

Maybe you are thinking he has a B&M clutch, or as mentioned, an aftermarket shifter. As pointed out above, shift kits are something in relation to automatic trannies only.

For the OP, I'd look into Nissan Maxima's... they've got some pretty surprising power in their 5 Speeds and can be down right sleepers... Thats if you're looking to go that way...
Admit it, an LS1 with a 6 Speed Auto would be awsome simply put
... I'd wish I could use the tranny thats in the Caddilac CTS...
