My Auto to Manual Swap IS DONE, finally! Options

[hurley97]

so i have the major parts for the auto to manual swap but now i need help
i would love to do it myself and everything...i just dont have the experience, or man power for that matter

ive gotten the ever popular "its not worth it, just buy a new car" which i choose to ignore, the "well i could do it for $2,000" which is way over my budget, and the wannabe mechanic doing work out of his garage who says "id love to try, can i give you an estimate" then never answers the phone again

id trust a 6gc-er over anyone else anyway so i figured id at least ask before looking elsewhere any more
i will pay, just let me know what you think is fair and i'll tell you if i can pay it

please help
thanks

JDM guy, yo!
haha
a few notes for future refrence.
be sure to get the rubber line that goes between the clutch master hardline, and the slave cylinder hardline. if you have to order it from toyota, they wont have any in-stock, and you'll be lucky if they have one in the country. ( they didnt when we did this.)
if you can get one thats in decent shape from a junkyard, do it.
shifter cable c-clips.
if your not planning major power upgrades, buy an OEM clutch.
you'll pay more, but the fit, feel, and life of the OEM parts makes it worth it.
1 1/4" holesaw for the clutch master, and a 5/16th drill bit i think it was.
