Question corolla 5speed in a mr2??

ok, so a friend of mine recently bought an 87 mr2 with an auto. he wants to put a 5 speed into it. quick question. would the 5 speed in my corolla bolt up, other than having to fab up new linkages could we make it work?

other than above stated 'linkage' modifications.... yeah, it will work... same axles, clutch/flywheel setup, clutch fork placement (except you'll need the hydraulics from an mr2), etc...

nope, you're wrong..... unless it's a camry... or a rwd corolla.... then the trans won't work regardless...

ae82: 4ac/4age (1.6)
ae92: 4af/4afe/4age (1.6)
ae102 (NA): 4afe/7afe (1.6/1.8)
ae101 (foreign): 5afe/4afe/4age/7afe (1.5/1.6/1.6/1.8)
ae111 (foreign): 4age (1.6)

Swapping the linkage is NOT EASY! It involves modifying the tranny.

It'd be like mating a Tempo engine to a Windstar tranny... just totally different.
