the tranny will bolt up just fine to your car 
swapping the tranny isnt hard at all. you dont need to pull the motor, it can be done fairly quickly, but you will have to remove the center section of your exhaust to get at it.
good luck!

Driveshafts for 5 spd N/A's all the same. Use the trans crossmember from the 1990. Crossmember needs to stay with the trans when S5 to S4 or visa versa.
Not difficult, but that trans is heavy, and you'll need an additional jack to keep under the engine.
