Ok, I'm going to do a Auto To Manual Conversion. I just want to double check acouple of things.
I have a '91 Eagle Talon TSI AWD AUTO and '92 Eagle Talon TSI AWD 5SPD.

Parts List:

AWD Manual Transmission with mount
Manual Tranny Transfer Case
Manual Tranny Rear Differential
Manual Tranny Front Axles
Fidanza Aluminum Flywheel
ACT 2600 Clutch
Master Cylinder
Hydraulic Clutch Line (3 parts)
Slave Cylinder
Pedal Assembly
Shifter Assembly
Shift Cables

Is there anything I'm missing?
Also how can I tell if I have a 4 bolt rear differential.
Why do I need the Front Axles and not the Rear?
Do I also need the starter from the manual car or is that only 2G?
And if I do this conversion what will I be losing? Cruse Control?
And will the car only start with the Clutch press down?

Also Should I just swap the motor with the manual Tranny? Do I need to swap ECU also, and will the pins match up from '91 to '92 ECU? Would I have to rewire anything if I use the motor w/tranny?
 
Auto tranny cars have smaller injectors.
u have to replace the ECU with a manual tranny one , and you have to upgrad your injectors.
all the help i can offer.....i havent done it yet but i want to.:D
 
You'll need a way to remove guide from end of crank.4bolt rears have 4 bolts on the outer ends of axles,3 bolts have-3 bolts.91s had 3bolt rears,swap that out with the other from the 92.Not sure you need front axles but if thats the consensis go with it.As far as park/neu safety switch-you'll have to do something with that-maybe wire it to clutch safety switch.Starter-not sure look up part numbers for both.
