Wondering, 3sfe and 5sfe tranny compatibility Options

[trdproven]

I have a 5sfe auto trans celica, but I want to convert it to manual trans. Will a 3sfe tranny mount up right to our 5sfe? Is it direct bolt on, will I need new axles, will modifications like drilling be needed, will it work at all?

Can I take everything I need from the 3sfe like shifter cable, clutch resevoir, all the little things and transfer them over? Or is it only the transmission itself?

Between the two checklist I found, what is what and what is needed really and from what model car specifically.

Here is the checklist from Doc *much shorter*.

Manual tranny
Flywheel and bolts
Clutch kit (and pressure plate bolts)
Driver's side mount for manual
Shifter assembly
Shifter cables
Clutch pedal assembly
Brake pedal (or grind down your stock one)
Clutch master cylinder
Clutch slave cylinder (if not included with tranny)
Clutch lines
Manual ECU or wire in resistor box for the auto ECU
