Hey guys, gonna swap out the auto trans on my 06 4g69 lancer for a 5 speed manual. Need some advice on a few things. Firstly, parts required; so far I know I'll need the following:
Manual Trans
Left trans mount
rear mount
brake/clutch pedal assembly,
clutch master/slave/lines
flywheel
clutch kit
instrument cluster
engine harness (maybe dash harness too)
ecu w/ key and barrell from same car
new flywheel bolts
shifter assembly
centre console
shifter linkages
new snap rings for drive shafts, though the auto and manual drive shafts are the same so they're reusable.

Is there anything I'm missing/it would be good to have?

Secondly, wiring. Electricals are not my strong suit. I think it's generally necessary to wire something up to get the reverse lights to work, and to bypass the neutral safety switch (or is this only required when keeping the auto ecu/engine harness?) is there anything I need to do like that if i'm putting in the manual ecu?

Thirdly, cruise control. Will it work after the swap?

Thanks guys
 
Go to manhiem or pickles and buy a donor car from salvage. Swap everything you need, take pics and post it up in member rides.
buying bits and bobs here and there is a poo idea, get whole car, then everything is there.
If you dont have room, buy a sawzall and make it a 1/2 cut.
 
If you use the manual ECU with the auto loom its possible to avoid changing engine loom.
Make sure the gearbox is in park before removing. Remove the inhibitor switch from top of gearbox and leave it plugged into the loom....glue it into the park position and tuck it away. Easy done. I did this recently on my latest project to avoid swapping engine looms.
With reverse switch I just used spade terminals from switch into the wiring from auto box..just need to probe the wires to see which is the trigger fro reverse lights and splice wires from reverse switch into that.
