ok i did a auto to manual on my sedan and i cant find a front tranny mount that will fit it for some reason.is the front crossmember diff from the auto to the manual?.i did a auto to manual on my old ef hatch and they was the same thing.

 

I am in the middle of getting ready for the same swap. I have fully stripped the donor car, but I did not grab that front crossmember, I hope I did not need it!

 

well on my hatch i never had to,thats why im at a loss.not sure what it is!

It shouldn't be different from hatch to sedan I wouldn't think. Now you got me worried!

 

yeah im sure its not diff,i know for a fact the rear mount is diff but the front is the same im sure.maybe i just have the wrong mount.

The rear crossmember is the same though? I grabbed the mount, but not the cross member.

 

yup its the same,only gotta swap the mount for the manual so your straight!

 

truest me u need one i killed a rear tranny bolt holes becausre of the power its apain or elts u can just make damper mount cheep

 

did you relocate the rear mount on the crossmember? there are 2 sets of holes in the crossmember, one set for manual and one set for auto - the holes for the auto are closer to the driver's side - you need to move the mount to the holes closer to the passenger side for the manual

 

use the mt frount mount and it should work

By reading his post i gathered that he has a rear mount.
