Your right, I'm wrong. I've never pulled an engine before, or a transmission, or taken apart either ever in my life. I have no experience whatsoever with anything related to Neons and/or cars in general and I dont know what I'm talking about at all. You obviously know much more then anyone on this forum ever could.

getting a little hot in here... how many hours are we talking for a tranny swap?

 

Play nicely children. Anyway where would be a good place to get a decent price on an MTX transmission in good shape? And can the PCM from an 03-05 neon be used on an 00?

 

No, the PCM from a 03-05 cannot be used. you must have a 00-02 PCM.

 

how did i miss this? lol

I've swapped a MTX into an ATX 1st gen for less than $500 and about a full day. Never tried on a 2nd gen.

 

get quotes!!!!! then talk.

 

"$1500" parts and labor, give or take comming from my mechanic, which happens to be my dad

 

Hey Kalevra, where do you love?? If your dad is a mechanic can he help me out? Lol. I mean for the whole deal? That is if he lives close enough...

 

funny you say your dad is a mechanic yet you couldn't get your dome light down. Sorry but I'm just not going to lie to everyone. If you were to find a donor car for cheap and do the work yourself, it wouldn't be that bad. However doing it part by part and paying for labor would be crazy expencive. In that case, you could sell your car (7,000) or so save on parts and labor (5,000) give take, and find a nice old srt 12,000 or so. Kalevra I really don't think you'll be able to pull it off yourself judging by the questions you've asked in these forums.

 

he doesnt have his tools anymore, but he's worked on more cars than anyone on here has ever owned or ever will

he had his own race car for christs sake
