Need clutch, flywheel, tranny, driveshaft clutch hydraulics, and manual pedal assembly. You can ghetto fab an adapter to bolt the tranny up to the auto mounts( theyre ina different spot) or be like me and have a 5speed car to use asa donor car for all the parts and cut the 5speed mounts out to weld onto auto chassis. Also need to wire up clutch switch, and splice tranny wiring to work with auto ecu and reverse lights. As for price around a 1000.00.

You can either drill out the spot welds from the mounts one the 5 speed car and then spot weld them into the auto car. That is the preferred method. I think you can buy them at Mazda too.
Or you can do what I did and weld the two crossbeams together. It's not pretty, but I raced a whole season whit it and it is still holding strong.
The mount is the hardest part of the conversion.
The trouble is that the auto is longer than the 5 speed.
