I missed the part that said it was auto. How much does it cost/work is it to swap a 5 speed in this bitch lol

lol You'd need transmission, clutch, flywheel, pedal, master and slave cylinder, PPF, maybe the ECU, don't know if the driveshaft is different, and probably some other misc. parts. There's a walkthrough on m.net for doing the swap that has a complete list of parts needed. Even after all that you could have a really nice NB after it's all said and done for much cheaper than book value.

Thanks for the quick reply and parts list. I believe the auto has a different LSD gear ratio then the 5/6 speed so that could work for or against me lol

Yeah I found the walkthrough.

Here's another reference too, just in case: http://www.miata.net/garage/auto_2_5_speed.html Between those two sites you can see what you're in for.
