Hey Guys!

I am from India. I will be getting a pre-owned 2.7L V6 (GLS EF2) Sonata soon. My main aim of buying this vehicle is that it is one of the most powerful here in India. We do not have the tiburon.

Now, i want to do a transmission swap, as only the auto trans is offered here with this engine spec. However the 2.0L (EF2) Sonata is also offered with a manual trans. I was wondering if the trans from this car will fit?

Also, i can import the 2.7L Tiburon 6 speed manual trans. Again, will it fit?

Any other options?

Thanks so much!

l am afraid l can not answer the question about 'will it fit' however do you understand how much work is involved changing from an auto box to a manual? it's not just a question of changing the gearbox, you will need drive shafts, gear lincage, clutch pedal and hydrolics etc etc (this topic has been discused before on the forums (use the search engine) it's just not worth the expence or the agravation
