You will also likely need the 5-speed center console, although alot of people continue to run the MR console.
The parts from the dealer are pretty expensive; best to look in the classifieds to see who is parting out a 5-speed Evo.
You can pick up a used tranny for ~$1,000; your 6-speed is basically worthless in the open market unless it is 100% operational.
If you aren't 100% comfortable doing the conversion yourself (it's not that complicated) then contact Baierl Mitsu and ask for Mike as he's really the only trustworthy person in W. PA that I know of. G/L
