You have all the parts listed you will need. You may need the drivers side transmission mount. I know you do on the V6's not sure about the 4cyl

You shoulden't need the cluster, just take the hold light bulb out. On both the cars I converted to 5-speed I diden't need the Brake resevior either. But I have heard that some cars don't have the port on the resevior for the line.

You will also need the slave cylinder and the starter. Might want to get the bolts that hold the flywheel onto the crank as well.

ok thanks i herd i might need the cluster cause of the speedo cable. but i will listen to the experts on this one cause i have never done a tranny swap before. And does it help the car go faster or is it about the same?

sorry, I forgot that the 4cyl use a cable for the speedo, so you might better check with someone who has done the swap on a 4cyl.

It will feel like a different kind of car, well it did with my V6 anyways. Not like it has more power but you can select gear and its not slow shifting like a Auto.
