In answer to your question... Yes, the 6spd manual transmission will bolt directly... I am in the process of this exact project but do not have all the answers yet... The tranny is not the major issue, though you will need a heavy duty clutch (Spec Clutches) and some minor modifications to the flywheel attachment... The BIG issue is the engine electronics... This is definitely not something that can be done and still expect the normal operation of the OEM systems... But if you're building a race car, who cares...

I'll keep everyone posted with my progress...
