I am looking to buy a 5 speed with goodies needed for install out of a wrecked car if possible... or if anyone is interested in swapping for my automatic trans (autos are worth more) I will take care of the labor for swapping everything from car to car.

I know its a long shot but its something Im looking to do in the not so distant future so I figured I would try here before I hit the wrecking yards...

Thanks

If you can find me a manual xa/xb transmission, I'll sell you mine!

Hey Walter, I heard that the gearbox (6-speed) out of the previous gen Matrix XRS and Celica GT-S can work.

no.

you'll need at least custom axles and one custom "engine" mount.

you're probably gonna bang into your steering rack as well
