You basically have to change eveything that interacts with the transmission, that being the flywheel, clutch, starter, slave, driveshaft, etc. If you want the TII rear end it's the same sort of deal, as you need to change the halfshafts too.

You spent 1300 on a clutch kit!!! WOW!!

If you go to a TII Trans you will need.

TII Flywheel
TII Clutch
TII Clutch Slave Cylinder

And either of the following lists

TII Trans to N/A Diff Driveshaft (Custom made or mazdatrix)

or

TII Driveshaft
TII Rear End
TII Axles


You could alternately buy another N/A Trans and don't beat the living snot out of it and it should last for some time. Aaroncake puts mad power through his without problems.
