Gearbox Shifter Modification

Gearbox Shifter Modification
I am trying to get the shifter from a 89 TII tranny into the stock location on an early style Mazda. Has anybody done this modification on a TII or late style tranny, so that they did not have to cut their trans tunnel on their first gen?
I do not want to cut the tunnel, so I am looking for a way to move the shifter forward to the stock location.
Any help or suggestions?

sorry, I thought you were talking about a FB.
Mazda only started using a remote shiftr box in the second series RX-7. So fitting it would make it a real pain in the ***.
Now, I my dad used to have an RX-2 and the transmissions are built much like the strength of the TII ones. It might be easier to find a way to get the bell houing to what ever engine your planning on using.
If you are still using an RX-2 engine, or a similar engine from the 70's, swapping the transmission would be a waste of your time. There would be little of no gain.

This is a turbo II swap. Trans is an 89 TII. The tranny has the remote shifter box.
This modification has been done before. I just have not seen anyone do it here in the US.
If you have modified a TII tranny to get it into the stock location on your first gen, can you please let me know how you did it, and what all would be required.
