shift kits for autos
Well my friend has a shift kit on his auto prelude, that way he can control the gear shifts, but I don't really hear a lot in general about them. Any insight on these? Are they good or not, potential damage to car (which is sort of obvious), and where to find one compatable for neons? you know, the normal stuff.

RE: shift kits for autos
This is what 03neonRT posted into the performance FAQ:
Q: Can I swap in a manual transmission into my automatic Neon?
A: Yes, you can and will need the following: transmission (3.55 or 3.94), modular clutch, passenger side axle, clutch master and slave cylinder, shifter cables and clips, tranny side motor mount from a manual transmission 2nd gen, MTX PCM from your year car, shifter and shifter base, clutch and brake pedal assembly from a 2nd gen
Q: What transmission do I use with the swap?
A: You can use either the standard SRT-4 T-850 transmission or the stock Neon 3.55 or 3.94 tranny (the 3.55 came with the SE/SXT and the 3.94 came with the R/T and ACR). I would highly suggest using the T-850 for ease of install and its “proven” record with the 2.4L engine. You can also use an automatic transmission out of the Neon or PT Cruiser with some modification.
