Lightbulb convert to a 5spd

I bought my car mainly to make it look good and to keep me out of trouble, and all they had was an automatic. So of course, my unpatient self bought it. Well, now I'm wanting to get back in the racing scene knowing this turbo is out from RRM. Can anyone give me a parts list and a projected amount of money it will take. Don't know where to begin. My other cars were 5spd so I didn't have to do this. Thanks.

hmm honestly most people will tell you to trade the car for a 5 speed. To change you are going to need the tranny, new front drive lines, differential, clutch pedal, new center consol, shift lever and all associated other parts.

pretty daunting task if you ask me.
