There are postings in the archives for such transplants; you may need to search on some less obvious terms?
Lucky you, you have no TCS, which means that you won't have to worry about all that electronic crapola to deal with. Since you're still on the tried and true LH system I think you can throw whatever mechanicals in there and the thing will just run. So your only issues will be to do with the PRNDL display in the dashboard and a couple other minor things I think.
That pretty much leaves the following things you'll need to do (help fill in any missing details, anybody?):
* Find a suitable non-turbo transmission. I think any from 91 on should work, but don't quote me on that. You may well need a 93 specifically; later years won't fit.
* Replace the halfshafts on both sides
* Replace the intermediate shaft and carrier bracket, as these are different between automatics and manuals
* Get a manual shift linkage
* Replace brake pedal, fit clutch pedal, install master cylinder & plumbing, add a clutch fluid reservoir
* Jumper the auto trans lockout switch to enable the car to start
I know I'm leaving lots of things out, but this would be the major portion of your shopping list for starters.
