I doubt the final drive ratio is the same as the SS.

You don't have to change the car ECU, there is a pin on the connector that let an auto ecu run with a manual tranny. Its a matter of replacing a ground signal to the pin with a 12v signal.

Then you just remove the auto tranny ecu, which is a different unit.

Other than that it shoud fit if you use the whole drivetrain
