i have a bmw 3 series 'k' reg, automatic i want to do it up. i was wondering if i could change the transmission to a manual.

This is not a do it yourself job. In fact, I'll bet you'll find that even some high-end shops would shy away from this. There's all kinds of cutting and fabrication involved, and that's provided that your engine is already set to mate with a manual OR an automatic. Besides that, other than the appeal of actually shifting the transmission, there's no real difference anymore between standards and autos, and in most cases the automatic transmissions are better. They're stronger, and typically much faster than a human can shift on their own. Stick with the automatic and don't waste your time....it's not worth it at all, even for the novelty of shifting yourself.

That's major work- you need to be more than "ok with cars"
get down d dealers
You'll need to be an electronics whizz too: you'll need to replace the engine management system too, as the system on an modern automatic expects to be able to talk to the gearbox control unit.
