Default Will this work?

Guys, i'm currently in the process of buying parts for my auto to manual swap for my 95 EG ex coupe. Anyway, there is a 97 tranny for sale (ex) and i was wondering if EVERYTHING tranny/axles etc, would bolt into my EG??? he's got a pretty good price on the tranny..
Thanks for the help!

the tranny itself will bolt up to the trany easy....the reverse plus might have to be mod'd to fit......I'm not sure about hte speed cog......

the tranny will work in your car. it will bolt onto your motor. you will need a new flywheel and clutch. i am however, not sure about the mount on the tranny side that attaches to the frame rail. you may need to remove it and have a manual one welded in. why not swap in a b-series at this time as well since you are looking at alot of work anyway?

What do you mean new flywheel and clutch?? be more specific?

No, i'm not swapping. If i had money growing off of trees i would, but i've already started piecing together my D16 turbo parts. Already ordered hondata too. Plus D16's are a dime a dozen. If i blow my stuff, i wont have to break the piggybank to get back on the road.
SoHc OwNZ JooOOO!

I dont think so knowing you can get the WHOLE EX swap for cheaper than that, but it's up to you. I'd look for a better deal. Satisfaction comes from patience, or something like that.
