99 trans in a 95? With modification?

Yes- bring over your gear and cover from the NA trans for the speedo cable. AAMOF I'd bring over your switches too since you know (IF) they were working on the other trans. You might test them once installed in the trans with a meter to make sure they're working, rather than find out after the trans is installed like me.

Ok. I don't get this, but NA neutral switch won't work in the NB trans. I moved my working switch over from a 91 trans and got no signal. Tried another NA switch and no signal. Plugged in the NB switch and it works fine. Haven't put a meter on it, but I'd say use the NB switch, just verify continuity through the switch when depressed first.

It's basically all the same ****... I just put a 1990 5 spd trans into an 01 car that came with a 6 spd. Had to hardwire the nuetral and reverse switches.
Use the shifter that came with that year trans. Makes life easy.

I don't have a 99 shifter- it went with the race car and the spare trans Mazda gave us didn't have a shifter. So it was either buy one for $30 or press the pin back to accommodate the NA shifter.
As far as the switches, I hear ya, but I just spent an hour out there screwing around with them and the neutral switch that was working in my 91 would not give a neutral signal in the 99 trans. Neither would the other NA neutral switch I have. The original switch would (didn't want to use it because the wires were chewed up). So it's now patched up and installed- working.
There is a physical difference between the NA and NB neutral switches- the ball in the NB is about half the size of the NA.

Rob--I wasn't really directing that at you, sorry if you felt I was gettin' snotty with ya.
I have nothing negative to contridictory to say about your methods and practices. I'm pretty sure there's lots I can learn from you still, and less so the other way around.

No- I was just trying to clarify my situation...elaborate on it for the sake of thread. I totally agree with the recommendation to use all the stuff that comes with the trans. Just check the switches prior to installing because the neutral switch is a bitch to get out once the trans is in. I actually made an SST with one of my sockets (a la O2 sensor socket) to get in there over the switch and remove it with a stubby rachet. Yet another "modified" tool.
