If I recall correctly, the 94-95 T-5's have a longer input shaft. So to answer your question, no a 87-93 will not work in a SN-95 chassis. You'll also need a 94-95 specific bellhousing too.

You are correct Sir. If you want a simple bolt in, you have to have a 94-95 t5 and housing. However,you CAN make a fox t5 to work I believe. I think Jase had a fox t5 in this 94 for a while. Not sure what was done to make it work in his car though.

In order to make a fox t-5 fit you will need a fox bell housing.

You can check D&D Performance, they have a lot of info on T-5's

Also they have the 94-95 rebuilt for $995. I think this has some upgrades in it, go check it out.

just use a fox t5 and bellhousing and get a driveshaft spacer from UPR.the shifter will sit a little forward but you can make yourself a custom handle to set it back.

Why not keep it simple and just switch out the input shaft if he gets a fox t-5
