Just a FWD gearBox i am assuming.

But i guess it depends on whot motor you have too, Carby of Fuel injected, If its fuel injected then you will need a manual computer as well.

But i dont really know, just guessing.

You'll need a gearbox, clutch and flywheel makes sure you get the flywheel bolts as they are longer than the autos TC plate bolts. You'll also need a pedal box with cables. Possible that you'll need to enlarge the trans tunnel hole (the one the levers come through) - I know you have to with an MY model. You'll also need the centre console pieces to suit. You may also need to mess around with mounts for the lever set.
