Ok, i have little knowledge about the systems on an rx-7 (i own a miata) but im looking to buy one and wondering the differences between the automatic and manual xmsns, if i were to do a swap from auto to 5 spd. are the drive shafts the same? what about ecus? are the holes already in the body to mount the clutch pedal and fluid resevior? any info would be great, thanks.

 

There's big and detailed write-ups on this topic already...look in the FAQ thread under automatic swap, and in the Archives.
