@Zane is the tranny swap expert.
@Zane
There is a matrix with everythin in ittt
grab your pencils and paper kiddos!! here comes a list!!
lol ok!!!! i got it
shifter assembly
shifter cables
trans
clutch kit
flywheel
flywheel bolts
pressure plate bolts
slave cylinder
clutch hard line and hose
5 speed axles, both sides
drivers side and rear trans BRACKETS, mounts are the same
clutch master cylinder
clutch pedal assembly
manual brake pedal
manual PCM THAT MATCHES THE CARS YEAR
3qts penzoil synchromesh
dot 3 brake fluid for the clutch
engine wiring harness, the existing one CAN be rewired for the clutch saftey and reverse switches fairly easily
i think i might have missed a few things….. @Matt, this look fairly complete?
Need the brake reservoir also, other then that, that looks like the complete list
ah, yes, that, i used the clutch reservoir from a C4 corvette and it fits the hose perfectly, just gotta mount it up on the strut tower
That’s interesting so you just did that instead of hooking it to the brake one, take a photo of that I’m curious
well i couldnt find just the manual reservoir for the brakes, all i could find back when i did my swap was the whole damn brake master, and i really didnt feel like spending the money and time on that, so i picked up the C4 reservoir for like $4 on ebay and it worked like a charm
heres the only pic i can find of it, and when i switched to freaking PURPLE dot 5 fluid
@Zane this is pretty cool
im glad i went with the seperate reservoirs too, bc like a week after i got it “done” i found a clutch hose fitting that wasnt tight enough and leaking the hard way…..
Quicklist…
-Sell your car
-find a 5spd car
-buy it… done. ??

???

Zane answered your question. If you still have to ask what to do, the answer is no, don’t do it.
