I think you need to weld in a new passenger side mount.

you will need:

- d-series 5speed tranny
- clutch master cylinder
- slave cylinder
- clutch lines
- 5 speed ecu
- d-series shift linkage and shifter
- clutch, gas, brake pedal assembly (u will need to swap out the brake and gas pedal assembly or the brake pedal will be too close to the clutch pedal)
- various bolts and screws and other small things

its basically straight forward and isnt that much of a pain in the ***. you will need to make a little "plate" that will be bolted near the shifter. the reason is because on the automatics, the hole where the shifter sits is larger and if not covered, mud and dirt will fling up there.


*IMO, save up the extra cash and drop in a dohc motor

Also, you need to do some re-wiring.

Nope. You can use the auto mount. You just need to get an EK manual tranny bracket. EG needs welding or adapter from placeracing
