Default B18A/GSR Sex Change

I have a b18a with an automatic tranny on it right now. I have a GSR 5-Spd that I am wanting to put on it. I obviously know to fo this I will need a clutch kit, flywheel. In doing this is there any other parts I am going to need or is it as easy as just taking off the automatic and throwing the clutch kit/flywheel and then putting the GSR tranny on?

Thanks

You'll still need axles, ecu, pedals, shifter, linkage, starter, and I feel like I'm forgetting something.....

In addition to what zero708970 listed, you also need the clutch master cylinder, the lines, and the clutch slave cylinder. Good luck!

Sorry guys I should have been more specific. I left out some much needed info. The B18A is a swap going into the car. The car currently has/had (removed) a D15 5-Spd in it. So before I put the B18 in it I wanted to have the manual tranny on it (save the hassle of putting the motor in and then doing the tranny swap). I have the DC2 B-Series Axles. All the lines and everything are still on the car from the D-Series 5-spd.

in that case, your clutch cylinders, lines and pedals from the d series will be okay. You'll need a shift linkage though, starter, and possibly tranny mounts, as I'm not sure if B series auto mounts are the same as B series manual mounts. Probably not.

If your doing an auto manual swap your going to have to either move the transmission mount or get a conversion tranny mount. The bracket on the frame is a off about 2-3 inches.

If the car was already a 5 speed you don't need the conversion mount all you need is the manual trans with the clutch, flywheel, shift linkage, motor mount, and axles the ecu is most important.
