[s-cars] Swapping '92 or 93 S4 trans into '95 S6

[Azeem Elahi]

Yes, the 6speed B5 trans would be ideal, or even another S6 trans, but they
cost significantly more.  I've sort of run low on cash right now, and
neither of those options seems feasible for me right now.  Thanks for the
input though, I'll have to weight out my options here.
