Guest 75blue260z Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 i have a 74 260z right now and it doesn't have a clutch pedal or a clutch cyclinder, my question is will a clutch pedal from a 79 280zx fit? or if not where and what year of the car can i get a clutch pedal from?

Mike kZ Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Not sure if a 79ZX peddle will fit, but any 70 - 78 should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veritech-z Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 I want to say that the ZX uses a different master cylinder, and also a different pedal. i looked at them way back when I was converting mine to stick from auto, and I remember having problems with it.

Twentyfourouncer Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 ANY clutch pedal from a 70-78 will NOT work. I converted my early 260z to manual and the pedal is different than the 240z pedal. I bought the complete pedal assembly from a 240z on ebay and the pedal angled differently, almost touching the brake pedal, wouldn't have worked without modification. I can't remember for sure about the 280z pedals, I lucked out and found an early 260 in my local junkyard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veritech-z Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 My car is a 77 280, and the pedal I ended up using came out of a 260 (might have been late, I don't remember, but it had square SUs on it). I didn't get the brake pedal, I just used a cutoff wheel on the side of the automatic brake pedal that interfered with the clutch pedal, and installed some aftermarket pedal covers to hide it.

mom'sZ Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 ANY clutch pedal from a 70-78 will NOT work. I agree, I think the early first gen (240z) where different then later (280z) first gen. Don't know about the ZX. I have a pedal assembly from a 240? and the distance between the brake master mount and the clutch master mount isn't wide enough to accomidate the booster. Maybe the difference is power / manual brake related too... The 260 probably swings on if it's early 260 or late 260 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
