500hp takes a lot of money as does a 6 speed manual so id say they are not going to happen.
You can swap the manual gearbox in pretty easily. To find out how do what boostedse suggested.
I'm not being funny, this question gets asked once a week, if you can't take the time to click the search button instead of needing it spoon fed, your no help to any forum.

For the auto-to-5speed conversion, go to www.240sx.org , INSTALLS section and look up "Rich's Auto => Manual Swap". Forget about the 6-speed; I believe it only came on the S15 SR20 motors; it will not bolt up to a KA motor; also there's no speed sensor on the tranny for your speedometer to work.
So you want to make 500+HP; well then be prepared to spend many thousands of dollars! Sure it's possible.
hmm, fully ported heads, bigger valves, valve jobs, high quality con-rod, cam etc bearings, oil squirters, stroked and bored engine, chromoly counterweighted lightened crankshaft, titanium H-Beam rods (check pauter...they have crazy internals) oh yeah, camshaft too...straight pipe since the turbo doesnt like back pressure, maybe a huge ball bearing turbocharger, different pistons, piston gas porting alot of new piston rings knowing how much you'll need them if you have pistons have had gas ported drilled in them...nickaseal*sp* the pistons just some things that i can think of to make ur engine produce that much hp and not bend internal parts if you're very lucky ... plus several thousand dollars and remember as the power of your engine increases, the life decreases
Pauter Super Pro 6.200" Connecting Rod *le drool* Price for EACH rod - $995 .. yes you read correctly 995
Happy Building KAengine240sx
