Tranny for a 13brew?

i was just checking out $150fc's post and that is something i am seriously going to do when i get the time and money ( and stop being a 17year old pizza boy), the thing ive been wondering about is what you do for a tranny? Do you just use the FD tranny and cut the tunnel for the lever? or what, i cant even fathom another way. or will the FD tranny just fit? or does the FB tranny fit the REW?
you can take your time answering if you like cause i wont even be attempting this for a few years at least.
thanks

Use the 13bt tranny for an rew. Your 12a tranny would never hold up.

Or FD Automatic counterweight, T2 light flywheel,T2 clutch, T2 tranny. Just another option. With the benefit being cheaper, more readily available parts.

Yep W is for double turbo. The Japanese have a hard time saying the word double (meaning double turbo) so they use W instead. lol
