There was a thread a while ago about what transmissions and driveshafts would work with what engines and rear ends. Just search it.

You can even drop a Renesis from the RX-8 and use your stock transmission.

You shouldn't have to change anything with the trans and driveshaft if you drill a couple holes and move the motor mounts 3/4" forward.
