I didn't look at shift linkage yet, but sure that can be resolved easily enough.
The box I have seems a bit different from the one in the other thread (it doesn't list a transmission code, but that short gearing is not available in this box). Difference with the 986 5 speed is at least that the flanges are asymmetric. So assuming I will keep engine and box centered in the car, one side will need a shorter driveshaft than the other side. Quite sure that this is, again, similar to the 987 setup.
However, would 987 shafts fit the 986 non-S? Would they fit the S? Or neither? I am not aware of the details of the rear suspension between 986 and 987, would the width from hub to hub be the same?
I'll be looking into more detail on part numbers etc. , but any available info could help me underway much quicker. Seeing the prices of the Porsche boxes, I am quite happy to have found this Audi one new for about $ 500.
