I hear that there is a 6-speed transmission swap; it comes from the Saab 93 model and the modifications you have to make to make it fit is re-weld the mounts, and it is said that the tranny will hook right up. I'm wondering if anyone has explored or done this yet.

 

I have heard about this, i believe someone said that it wouldn't work. not 100% though.

 

im looking into this also. bump for answers

 

hmmm this would deffinately be something to look into, damn that would b nice... where would anyone even find a good reliable source?

 

bump, anymore info?

 

I've actually found that the dealership is pretty reliable on information like this, or check how the 2.2,2.0 S/C, and the 2.4 bolt on to the tranny and see if the housing is similar to that of the saab 6 speed tranny.

I'll look into this more.

 

ugh idiots. there is a swap already done. i'll find link.


- got lazy nvm. but there is one out. its like a 2000 dollar swap tho. its very expensive but there is a vender who sells it

too expensive for me. but yet im thinking bout it more and more

 

i dont see why it wouldnt bolt up to the engine. the 6 speed in the saab is used on the 2.0 turbo right??? and the 2.0 is an lsj just turbo'd not supercharger. the only thing i could think of is if it would bolt up is you would probaly have to get a custom driver side axle depending if the length of the 6 speed is longer, shorter or the same as the 5 speed.
