It's a non-world class trans and it's a different spline count...

Here's a good read:

Eh, a lot of the parts can be swapped over but it's still NWC. So it's even more useless than a WC t5

Tailhousing needs to be changed. Shifter is too far forward. Other parts need to change too.

So basically you need to spend a ton just to make It usable
