Auto--->Manual swap
hey guys, im new to nissans and im wondering if somone can give me some info on how to do an manual swap in to a 95 nissian 240sx, becasue im getting a 240sx soon...i hope...and its automatic. im just doing my homework now, but later on i wanna get the sr20det motor and swap it in, and since it already has a manual tranny, i wanna know wat else i got to do. i have swaped honda motors before, did a b18b (integra ls) motor in to my 92 hatch, droped right in, very easy, just worried about the nissian motor swaps, since its much a bigger motor and rwd. so i just need all the help i can find...post any websites that can help me out, im new and willling to learn everything i need to do it right the first time.
ps. im planning to swap the motor in sometime near the end of winter close to spring, depending if its cold or snows becasue on the eastcoast the weather changese every year. sucks!
thanks guys

Hey HyJynX... did u do that auto to manual swap yet? I posted a while ago and you said you were gonna do a write up... I forgot which post it was. Just wondering, not tryna rush you or anything heh. :]
Im still lookin for a s13, and seems so rare, i might just go for an auto. So i wanna get mas info, and make sure the set up is coo [not like the weird pedals with brake really close to gas; i posted about it in here too i think...]
Thanks

Kinda, but i kno u could just saw the auto brake pedal to be as sml as a manual one rite...
I mean is the brake pedal gonna be spaced the correct distance from the gas pedal just like a factory 5spd pedals would be spaced...
