Drivetrain components must be swapped as a unit...not partially. You can use an auto TB from a neon...as long as you use the auto trans as well. The car has to be in a configuration that could be ordered from the factory.

You can build a car with any configuration you want...as long as that configuration was available through factory options. You can turn a base completly into an SE...or you can match any options configuration as long as you have proof from the factory you could get it that way. At least you S14 guys have a decent chance...S13's must be completely transformed into HICAS models to get vlsd in STS and GS. See more of my opinion/interpretation on the difference between this and ud/bd in the previously posted 'Discussion' link.
