Guest Anonymous Posted November 29, 2002 Share Posted November 29, 2002 Hi Adam, It's a fairly simple procedure.Here is a list of parts you are going to need.A 5 speed tranny,I highly recommend one from a 280ZX.A clutch master and slave cylinders, the hard metal line that runs across the fire wall from the master cylinder to the flexable hose that goes to the slave cylinder,the flexable hose,inner shift boot and boot ring. Ok here is the tricky part.You will have to remove the centre console and the automatic gear selector. Now with a die grinder CAREFULLY cut out the excess sheet metal on the tunnel so the inner shift boot can be properly installed.Also use caution not to bend the hard metal line.Any questions please ask.
