i looked up the paradise racing website and its a bit strange. under the suspension part, they make parts for toyotas, nissan, etc, and then "universal."

you'd have to call them up i guess, when it comes to 82's your options are pretty limited.

when mounting the new tranny, would it fit the original position slot or will there need some fabrication work to make it fit? ideally, i'd like for it to be a perfect fit cause i like where the shift knob and stick is located.

the tranny should bolt in directly, you might need to do little adjustments but its a bolt in. since the car is front wheel drive, the tranny has no affect on shifter location. the shift mechanism has a frame that bolts to the floor, then cables run through a grommet on the firewall, into the engine bay to the driver side (where the tranny is located).
