mix matching parts help

Hey guys,
I got a 12a from a 82' R-2 what do I need to do to make it work in my 83'? I can also get a 5 speed from a fc for free but don't know if I can use it. Any help or advice welcome.

I know the flywheel won't work. The clutch changed from 82 to 83. The fc trans will work(90% sure) but the tail housing will need to be changed out.

find more info here http://members.ij.net/mrmazda/interchange.html

also the Mazdatrix.com website is very helpful.

btw-what is an 82' R-2?
