Isn't that car equipped with a K20? If so the tranny will not go on.

Really? I didn't know that 92-00 trannies would bolt up to 01-03 engines, if though they were still d-series.

the d17 will not bolt up to a d15 or d16. Only 92-00 are a direct swap.

Really? I thought they were all the same. I could be wrong tho, anyone else ?

You can go pre 92 but then you have to deal with the hydro-cable issues.
