Beretta.net

Hello all. My name is Rob. I am a new member here and I have a 95 Beretta 3100 auto. I got the car off of my neighbor for $200 and have since put over $600 into making it into a half decent car. I have installed stupid stuff like a glass pack muffler and a cone filter. I'm honestly thinking about performing the 3800 supercharged swap. But right now I want to think smaller and perform a 5 speed swap on it. I am an ASE certified mechanic so I know what is involved with it and I have researched it some to see basically what I would need to complete it. I have all the tools necessary to do it...I just need the parts. I am going to be getting my taxes here soon and I am interested in seeing if anyone has these parts and if they can help me in my quest. If not, I might be interested in selling my car. I'm not a bullshitter so if anyone has the parts please PM me or leave a message here and I will check it throughout the day from my phone. Thanks everyone!

where are you located?

you know of the computer hurtle correct?

There is no computer hurdle for 94/95's. Duh.

I've got pedals, 92+ mounts, shift cables and some other odds & ends. You'd still need a flywheel, shifter, hydraulics and the trans itself.

I have access to a shifter, 5 speed shift plate, 3.94 getrag transmission with hydraulics & clutch/flywheel, axles, and jack shaft. Note: (These are not my parts, but I can remove them, buy them and resell them, then ship them)... These parts would be from maybe 1 or a few different cars in order to get the best and proper parts.

Yes there is... the Neutral Safety switch park neutral switch setup. Its not a computer thats native to a 5-speed so you have a bunch of stored codes too that you can't remove. Remember how many were showing up on the 96 that we programmed out.

That's the 96. There are no codes on the 95 (at least that illuminate the SES, or affect drive-ability).

The P/N switch and the CSS are simple fixes; while ghetto for the P/N switch, it works.

Well I guess thats more of what I was referring to... since if he does not do this he will have a 4k limiter, aka computer hurtle.

Sorry guys. I am mostly an import dude. I'm in New Brighton, PA (right outside of Pittsburgh). If anyone has the parts and can give me a roundabout price estimate PM ME. I work ALL day and I am not allowed to use my personal e-mail at work. I am just kind of doing this because I want a 5 speed car and it makes more sense to swap my Beretta (which I love) than to sell it for another car with less power. As soon as I get one more of my W2's I'll be able to file my taxes and get my money. I'm just trying to figure out what a roundabout price is. If I have to drive a little ways to get the parts so I can save on shipping (especially for the trans) then I will do that. Thanks for the fast replies everyone!

That's right, I totally forgot about that. It'll act like the car is in park the whole time. I'm also going to install an aftermarket tach just until I can get my hands on a cluster with a tach and trip meter. I mean, I'm 28 and I have one kid and another on the way (due in March) and I'm kind of working on a budget and time contraint so I need to make sure that once I start this, I can get it done in a day or two. Anyone that's done this before, is it hard? Is there anything other than the computer thing that I need to know? What can I do to make the computer recognize that it's not an auto anymore? What should I need to know or look out for?
I'm an engine builder and I just sold my last swapped car. It was a 1992 Dodge Colt hatchback with a fully built Mitsubishi Eclipse turbo engine that dynoed at 308 hp at the wheels and 284 lb ft of torque in a car that weighed 2375 lbs. I'm not looking to go crazy with my Beretta but it's either swap it to a 5 speed or sell it and I'm not ready to get rid of it. So any thoughts or warnings would be appreciated.
