I dont know for sure dude, but ill try to help you out. First of will be the transmission it self, a clutch package, shift linkage, shifter, shift boot, center consule, clutch pedals, wire harness, speedo cable ( i think), different transmission mount possibly, i dont know if axles are different or not. Thats all i can think of off hand, hope that helps ya

shift linkage
manual ECU - more about this later
manual starter
flywheel
clutch master cylinder
slave cylinder
hydraulic lines
pedal assembly
tach - either a mounted one or a new cluster, helps with the downshifting
shifter
shift knob
shift boot
miscallaneous nuts and bolts!!
Front Mount Braket

ur also going to need both bearing that go in the clutch for the 6th gen u don't have to use ur lower mount for the tranny, becuase it won't the uper one is the same as the 5 speed, but it might need a washer or 2 to fit in right and u have to cut up a spot for the shifter, i had mine done like 3 week ago

Your going to have to cut out the "trough" type thing, that the autocable runs through. Remove your center console, and you'll see where you need to cut. You can go about it two ways. Either cut around the the "trough" or you can drill out the spot welds, and just knock it out. Your going to need to cover the hole back up.

I used dynomat becuase i got it for free
