I've reseached and haven't really found much about this topic, but is it true that S15 6 Speed tranmission can by swapped with a S13 5 Speed with no modifications using a S15 driveshaft?

I think there are far more differences with the S15's transmission than what you may think. I've heard that the S15's transmission's not worth the trouble to try to install (including the S15 motor) due to numerous complications and differences to the s13 or s14 trannys and setups. If you're looking for a 6sp transmission, look at the Greddy 6sp sqential transmission. I think that'd be your best bet although costly I hear it's quite impressive.

The 6 speed will not work at all with a KA, it will with the SR but with numerous complications. The 6 speed is also weaker psyhically, the case is the same size so the gears are smaller, and don't hold up as well. Greddy and HKS offer 6 speeds, as well as Quaiffe, and Greddy makes a 5->6 speed kit too.

I'm sorry i forgot to mention that the car would have a SR in it.
