Well that explains why they're so freaking hard to find. I guess that means I'm converting to a 6 speed. Manual conversion train here I come!

Do you know it all the manual transmissions the same ×type× i.e. part number between the four cylinders and the six-cylinder models?

Even that will be "hard"...if your trying to source a wreck/donor car.

I recall that of all the MY2005 C230s produced for USA, only about 3% have three (okay four) pedals...

I would strongly urge you to get EPC...they upped it to $75 from FREE...but, in a project like this, that will pay itself 10 fold...

Scary or should i say scared. All that work converting is gonna eat up track time. I feel like a school girl picking the right boy for prom.

Maby the twin clutch/auto is good for some track induced smiles.....
