Building something unique
 

So I'm new here, but I've owned 1 of my 2 RX-8s for the past 8 years, I bought a second one today because it has 80,000 miles on it and is super clean, I just finished putting a clutch in the one I already had, so now that engine and tranny will be going in the clean one. Look at the photos you understand why, anyways, my unique creation is a tube chassis car I'm also building, using the suspension from the crappy RX-8 and I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas on what I can do to make shifting possible while sitting in front of the engine
