Okay some further research the boxes are different but maybe some slight mods and it would fit its a smaller fly wheel and clutch system for na so maybe just get the bigger flywheel and clutch system and should all fit in the diff is larger so needs the turbo axle I think they said but might just replace the whole lot and get a 9" something I know I can't break

This is what I was told


The turbo manual box can be fitted. You will need to either fit a turbo M86 diff, cradle, hubs, halfshafts, or fit a custom tailshaft.

tail sharft wouldn't be to hard, get the yoke from the turbo box and we could swap the yoke assuming they're the same lenght

To buy the transmission brand new fully kitted out with a clutch kit is $7160 worth it new? Or better to go second hand and hope its not trashed

Don't waste the money on a gearbox unless you're going to have this car for the next 10 years.
