Nismo is not available in any form in Canada.

All the traffic in the world would not make me get an AT

Pretty much what I was thinking... Their tiny little minds just can't believe that the 7AT is, to many of us, as fun or more fun to drive than the 6MT.

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

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!

It's going to be a lot cheaper for you to just trade your car in on a 7AT than to actually purchase the 7AT + electronics and install.

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

^^ 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.
