anything with a "A" series engine the gearbox will fit, but if its a 4afe/7afe the final drive is taller.. so wont accelerate like the box's on a "G" Series engine

Will fit and work but ratios will be taller than the box that comes out std, so at the same rpm you will be going faster, but more load on the engine so it gets there slower

not necessary since auto ecu can still able to be used with manual box... but if you got the extra money to waste then sure you can get a manual ecu.... i'm still running auto ecu on a manual box for the past 4 or so years and no issues.....

most corolla shafts wont have a hanger bearing on the right shaft, left shaft is the same, right shaft should fit but its not as good.
