Anyway, to answer the OP's question: The odds are that no-one has done a conversion.

Could come to Canada and get a 40th AT and get the Navi too. But cars generally cost more here - even for the exact same car and after f/x

Do they sell the Nismo with navi also, or is that Japan only?

I had wondered about that... the Hyper Rev book claimed there was a 7AT Nismo, but I thought it was a typo.

Nissan needs to put a dual clutch as an option. I think it will bring peace to AT and MT owners.

I love the way these AT/MT threads pop up once a week..
though this one is tame. everyone growing tried of the debate

i would like to know the precentage of drivers who go from the mt to the at
or the at to the mt....

i'm guessing most guys switch from the mt to the at....

little hidden meaning there...

Thanks for sharing your views, everyone. Regardless if you drive an MT or AT, 'hope you enjoy your ride - every single minute of it.

Peace!

You're right, this is like my350z and G35driver where those guys are a bunch of mis-informed id10ts

Don't turn this place into something like that. It always seems to be the buddy buddy people who make really close friends on here and follow each from thread to thread usually mentioning each others first names back and forth.. Spending also a lot of time in the lounge area.

Back on track; MT to AT is very normal, I know a lot of people who have made the switch.. I'd rather be in an MT but AT can sure be a huge blast sometimes. Just go for it!

Nismo is not available in any form in Canada.

^^ this. but still, AT is too boring to drive around my town. too many straight roads. when l lived near canyons over a decade ago i had a AT coupe with manual shift and loved it. it depends on the application...and in those days they didn't have clutch based AT's that i could afford. even with the torque converter it was fun to drive.

but traffic being a reason to get AT, that's just lame. MT to me is easier to drive in congestion and bumper to bumper.
