5 speed adapter plate
Does any one have a schematic or drawing of a adapter plate for 5 speed swap? or point me in the direction of a post that does. thanks

adapter??
All Mazda Rotary Engines use the same transmission bolt pattern. At least up to 91. So if you want to swap in a 5 speed the only consideration is where the shifter will be. Turbo Trannys use a different flywheel and starter, but they too will fit.

adapter for tranny cross member. 5 speed sits a little further back! shifter location is the same, I read on here 1/4 inch steel plate is sufficient enough. Just wanted to know if someone sketched one that fit. To eliminate trial and error method.
