i just got this great deal on this 240. pics up soon BUT. auto. need manual b4 i start getting ANYthing for my car. i seriously will not mod anything if its not 5spd. i live in winnipeg and my junk yard is not full of s14’s. where can i get all the stuff from other than car-part.com?
me, along with a couple other dudes here are in the same boat. let us know if u find out where hehe
do i smell… group buy?
of what trashed manual s14s? these arent parts that are readily available like the s13 ones… a lot of the parts from the 13 arent interchangeable with the s14
my only problem is finding all the parts for this swap. and yes i know car-part.com but in my area it sucks ass for having 240’s. shipping would runnn me up. only if i could fly one of the people who done it here :lol:
Shhh, don’t tell anyone, S13 trannys are the same as S14 ones…
Ya I was about to say you dont need to get a 95+ tranny and stuff to do the swap, as long as you can find a 91+ model tranny you can do it for less.
no shizzle. swapping the tranny isnt just swapping the “tranny”. you probably know that there are a lot of other parts involved (clutch pedals, clutch lines, drive shaft, etc) and those are the parts which are hard to find aka non-interchangeable. and thats what we’ve (me at least) been referring to through out the entire post.
yup, i wish they made like 5spd kits or something haha. that would be awesome.
Isn’t there an additional sensor missing on the s13 5spd?
OKAY. so i’ve lost all my sites of instructions making my auto to a 5spd. what other manuals are there other than 240sx.org? i had a really good one with wiring but lost the site due to my computer screwing up? some one help! i need a really good site w/ the wiring.
any of you guys know how to do a auto>5spd conversion on a FWD?(obviously, I dont have to point out its not a 240sx). Will provide beer/pizza/and other type of food you want.
Can someone explain why the 5spd driveshaft is diffrent between the S13 and S14? is it just length?
diffrent wheelbase. S14 have a larger wheelbase
hey i have a few questions that you guys might be able to answer. if not thats alrite. (1998 240sx)
im looking for the price($), location of the part(L) and swappability of some parts
-
break and clutch pedal assembily - ($) (L) assuming they are all the same for every year the 240sx was made…
-
clutch master cylinder- is this the same for every year 240?
-
slave cylinder - ($) where is this located on the car? i cant find it in the manual
-
clutch line - ($) (L)impossible to find im guessing… where can this be made?
-
tranny - ($)i need the pressure plate i think it is… the part that fits inbetween the engine in the tranny? OBDII sensor… same for each year.
-
drive shaft - ($) (L)do i need both parts of the drive shaft front and back section?
any help would be much appreciated.
ECU aswell - ($) im guessing 200 somthing. (L) and do i need to swap the ECU from auto ecu to manual ecu or can i just stick with the Auto ECU? if not do i need the 98 or can i still use the 97 or 96 or 95? so many question so little answers. 
thanks
You mean a Clutch or a flywheel?
Those go aftermarket for like $200-300 (clutch)
And for the flywheels, it’s usually the same price as the clutch, all depends how much power u expect ur engine to produce.
Check out http://heavythrottle.com/ and go in the SR intall FAQ. The SR tranny is pretty much the same as the KA, minus a the fact that it only goes on SR engine, but everything else is that that you need to know for the auto>5spd conversion
found some prices for used parts. you may want to refer to this as a “rough” guideline as to how much you should be looking to pay.
-
break and clutch pedal assembily - 60 for both or 30 each approx.
-
clutch master cylinder- ive seen some on ebay go for 10bucks shipping excluded.
-
slave cylinder - new on ebay $10
-
clutch line - possible to make your own at Canadian tire $?. or buy a used one but its a bitch to take out. around 35$
-
tranny - $200-400 depending on how much you get ripped off.
-
driveshaft - oh this ones a b***h to find. your looking at around 50-400 depending if you can even find one and depending on what car you have (s13 or s14)
so you will spend around 450 - 1000 im told.
Here are my prices that I have paid and I did get some good deals here and some things I got raped lol
Tranny - 350 but I got a engine with about 75-80K on it with it so thats a deal
Driveshaft - 200
Clutch Master - 114 New from Nissan…30 from automotivewarehouse DOH!
Clutch Slave - Free
Shifter Finisher Plate - 60 with boot
Lines - Not much just brake line
Pedals - 20 for both
So the moral here is dont even think about doing the swap unless you have about 1000 dollars free since unexpected costs will come up and its not a cheap as you think.
