Motor is a straight drop in, you can pull the front brakes off for a 10.3" upgrade, rear discs if they are there; also the motor is a straight drop. Pretty much all the brakes, motor, and transmission can be be swapped over. Have fun, thats a rare find Front seats might have some issues, don't know and the fenders are a different size to my knowledge.

so the tranny is a drop in? i heard i cant use the std axels and hubs becuase they are different? i think im only going to get the tranny stuff. im kinda broke.

i want the front seats too, cuz mine are all torn and nasty. wont they just go on the same rail or "drop in"?

Oh, damn. I didn't read the part about it being a standard. You are correct in saying that the axles wouldn't work, nor the hubs. But if you take the EX tranny you will need some new hubs for it so why not grab the ones on the sedan? Save up a little, or buy the hubs now because you will need them anyways to do any drivetrain modifications on your car. Now on the seats, I really don't know and I haven't heard it discussed. Best thing to do rather then try it out would be to get the measuring tape out and start grabbing some figures.

hell get the ex hubs and calipers right now then the rest later. That way you will have the bigger ex rotors ( which are getting hard to come by ) and the spline size for the axles you need when you later swap the motor.

Your standard axles will plug into the EX tranny. They are different on the knuckle end.
