no. The five speed and auto crossmebers are 180 degrees different, you will see what I mean when you see them side by side. the driveshaft is different too. Make sure to get the drivehaft and crossmember from the five speed car.

You need the front half of the driveshaft for the 5spd swap, but at that point you might as well get the whole thing.

The crossmembers are entirely different as stated above.
