Auto or manual? Manual no it won't, auto should with the e series bellhousing. And maybe a slight loom mod but doubt it unless its an adaptive shift one

AU is too long for your EL. The tail housing is about 5cm longer.

The AU Auto is the SAME as the E series ones. Only the AU T5 manual is longer than the E series.

Even with the AU bellhousing it can be bolted up minus two bolts at the bottom. Still plenty strong enough.

benj is correct

AU auto goes into E-series using an EF/EL bellhousing

the EA/EB/ED housing have a different bolt pattern

Thats good, means that when the trans goes on the AU, i can get an ef box to stop the slow changes in between gears
