B20 + T5 140-160

Well I got the transmission fresh rebuilt and that was $750. If you get the adapter plate from v-performance it's gonna run you about $160 or you could possibly have one machined yourself. You'll need some nubs for your clutch fork that are avaliable from v-performance for $20 grinding down the current clutch fork nubs is pretty easy to make them fit these new thingies. You'll need a new throwout bearing and a new pilot bearing. Uniberp has done this swap as well and probably has some good info, he was having trouble getting the speedo cable to fit and there is some splicing that needs done there. I have a new set of autometer gauges so I can just use a mustang cable the whole way. You'll need the driveshaft spliced which costs a decent chunk of change since it needs done at a shop unless you have the ability to tig weld and balance. The crossmember will need modified as well to fit the T5 setup, or you could bend some metal in order to use the stock mount. I'm going with a poly 4 bolt mustang mount since I want some strength to it. If you're running stock I'm sure the stock rubber mount will be sufficient.
