Default Thoughts on making an estate wagon

My wife would prefer a wagon and prefers stick shift to autos. I can't disagree with that though process with the x type auto tranny issues anyways. What are the chances of creating a stick wagon using the ecu and tranny out of a sedan? I'm guessing I'd need to come up with one with traction control and the like as I don't think I've seen a wagon without it. Any other issues out there that pops into your head?

well you would have to get almost everything from a sedan with a stick. That being said , Its a lot of work to convert a auto into a stick. I have a few friends who might be able to help you out. They have junk x types but not sure if they are stick or not. I will find out for you.


Good luck,


The DR!
