miata 5sp internals in fc 5sp

It's not so much swapping bellhousings or anything like that, but more like swapping the Miata guts (contained in the center section), into an FC transmission case. The Miata gearbox is basically the same as the FC NA unit, I wouldn't expect it to be much, if any more durable. They are a known weak point on turbo Miatas (they're lighter, so can take more power to break them).
