i really must say that their is alot of A**H**** in this forum if he just asked a simple question answer it if not just say search i guess alot of people here enjoy saying stupid S*** to others. But hey to answer your question.
GT motorsports does the job and with all new parts from nissan it runs about 11k I already called and asked once to see if i could do it to mine. If your going to do such thing i suggest do alot of homework and read alot because their are alot of mechanical and intirior pieces to change.

Ditto on the 11k, I was quoted 11,500 for mine (g35, but same internals).
And I agree that there are alot of *******s on this site, no wonder I heard it had a bad rep. Personally the only reason I joined was for the market place and every once in awhile I browse the threads looking for new ideas (like how I stumbled on this one), but it drives me nuts how many of you just get on here and nag and ***** to everybody else who asks a question. You guys need to get off your menstrul-cycles and quit trying to run everybody over who gets on here just to ask a question. You had to ask the same questions at one point in time or another and I bet nobody told you
and if they did I guess that explains why you are such an ******* cause daddy never held you enough

A rebuilt manual transmission is about $3,500. Figure 5 hours for the install or $500. A clutch assembly is $1,500. Figure 3 hours or $300 for the instal. About $6,000 total.

No one mentioned running the hydraulic clutch lines and mounting clutch master cylinder, and slave cylinder. Still want to do this? Keep looking, there will be a deal on a 6 spd. car out there somewhere.
I suggest like many buy a manual its going to save you time and headaches plus its truly never the same something always comes up in swaps like that but sit down and make your decision.
I've looked into doing a swap as well. It can cost about $6k - 10k depending on the parts purchased and especially the clutch. Lots of little things to consider. I believe GurgenPB on this forum did the swap and will be starting a thread on it.
