2002 R50 6 speed swap

If I were to buy a 2006 Mini Cooper S to swap everything would it make the swap easier and what extra parts would I still need ?

It would make it much easier, depending on the condition of all the parts of the donor.

I have a complete kit in stock so you don't have to get an entire car.

Do you have cruise control on your R50?

NO you don't need the S ECU, we can reprogram it

Here is his link for it:

http://www.waymotorworks.com/cvt-to-...rsion-kit.html

If you look around for all the parts listed you'll be able to get the total cost of the parts separately, but it'd be easier to just give him a call to find out.

EDIT: This is for auto to 6 speed, not sure if you have a 5 speed or not but the parts list would be similar.
