Capri XR2 Trans and shafts

[Jasin]

Have a 1990 Festiva w/ 1.8 DOHC from a 1993 Mazda LX.
Will the XR2 Capri's transmission fit a DOHC 1.8 without problems?
Whats all involved/needed to swap it in there, anyone else already do this? I can just use the Festivas half shafts?

Thanks

the bp fits the g25m-r trans but i hear the oil pan bolts dont line up but i hear thats not really a big deal. you can use the 1.8 clutch and fly wheel or use the 1.6 clutch and fly wheel, you need to use capri xr2 axles and mid shaft you will need to modify the mounts, if you are just using a n/a bp you could just use the festi tran and axles and you would only need to fab one mount, if you do the g25m-r swap it is a beefier trans but all the mounts will need to be modified or custom, search buttton has lot more info
