JDM e153 from Mr2, will it work? Options

[BigJ]

I found this JDM e153 tranny out of an MR2. I talked to the guy that has it and he says he bought it for his ST205 swap but couldnt use it b/c the bracket for the shifter cables were on the wrong side. I looked at the tranny and kinda saw what he was talking about. But i havent heard of anyone else having that problem. I looked at the treanny and saw what he was saying. You can replace the selector shaft and selectors and have them both on the opposite side.....but then when you replace the shifter cable bracket its still on the other side. Is it supposed to be on the other side or is that what they meant in the wrie up on it where you have to extend the shifter cables......let me know guys......thanks!

Ok im confused.....I know that you swap the selctor shaft and selectors from the alltrac tranny to the MR2 Tranny. That puts everything on the side you need it. Is there space on the Mr2 tranny to mount the shifter cable brackets on the right side? I know you have to drill and tap holes to mount the selectors. Do i have to do the same to mount the shift cable brakcet?
