s13 front clip to s14 chassis

Okay I just bought a 97 240sx SE for $4300 w/ 183000 miles. The car is an automatic. Okay here is the question; I am in the market for an 13 front clip for a swap. What I want to know is if the s13 master cylinder and slave cylinder will bolt on the s14 chassis. Also will the clutch pedal and clutch pedal bracket fit. Oh, yeah how bout the brake pedal too while im at it.That way I wouldn't have to buy them seperately to convert to 5spd manual. That is all please help! If this does fit it will save me alot of money since I'm broke and all. I am new to Nissan, this is my first post. I used to be an avid Honda guy. Yes, I used to own 4 honda's before I got this 240. I sold my 99 Civic Hatch with a b18 motor for my current 240 and have enough for a engine swap =) Going straight gets boring, going sideways will be cool.

Hey wait a minute I could be wrong. Is the s13 not a direct swap into a s14 chassis?

Nothing wrong just it seems more logical to save up to get a S14 SR. But hey, sometimes money limits everything.

I have a 97 in the shop as soon as I get it back im converting it to stick,yes u can use everything from the s13 except the line that goes from the master to the slave u have to have a s14 one u can get from the dealer for aout 20 bucks,also the driveshaft has to be from a stick s14 remember to check if its the right driveshaft measure it wit ur old one on the car and see the stick one should be longer and the carrier which where the driveshaft bolt on from the middle should be in the same pattern as the auto driveshaft because the s13 one is a little more to the back.your s13 redtop will bolt right my friend wit a 97 has it in his b*t*h is fast.
