I heard that this combo allows a TII trans to be bolted into a NA car. Is it true, and if so how do you know.

Just take the blue pill..
it will work but, i would recommend getting a custom driveshaft from mazdatrix or someone. i think they are like $242.00 us or something. they have replaceable u-joints, and unlike just using the auto d-shaft, which by the way will not go all the way into the tranny, will work perfectly. just call mazdatrix and see if they make a driveshaft with turbo front yoke, and n/a rear u-joint. shoud be no problem.

No. The auto drive shaft will not work. The T2 drive shaft will work if you re-drill the rear flange. Or you have to get a custom drive shaft. Mazdatrix does this like the guy above said.

I was just looking at the driveshafts from mazdatrix. They either would have them, or could fab one up for you for a faily decent price. And you'ld be able to change the ujoints after that too...

I would take it to a machine shop and have them drill it for you. I would imagine that the driveshaft could be unbalanced if your holes werent evenly spaced out or if some were bigger than others.
I would use the auto driveshaft as a temp. solution until you have enough money for a good custom one.

I think that If I am carefull enough I could drill out the holes until they are just big enough to reach on all four corners, that should keep it balanced enough.
