It’s very straightforward.

1. Remove auto tranny and auto pilot bushing
2. Drill holes for new clutch pedal and install with clutch master cylinder
3. Remove old brake pedal and replace with 5 speed one (or cut the old one)
4. Switch driveshafts for the 5 speed one (make sure you get ABS/non-abs accordingly)
5. Install 5 speed tranny with NEW manual pilot bushing and NEW koyo (nissan oem) throw out bearing and 5 speed tranny crossmember
6. Connect clutch hardline and softline directly to slave (don’t use the clutch dampener box)
7. Jump parking fuse wires

Done.

These steps may be out of order, but those are all of them in a general sequence of things. Hopefully I didn’t miss anything.

Apparently my 91 is from the US because when I give my vin number to any dealership they say “that number is no good, you must have a US car” and because of that they cannot look up any of the parts I need.

Does anyone know the numbers of these parts?

Break booster (non-ABS) and master cylinder  
Throw out barring  
Manual pilot bushing

Thanks guys.

No you don’t need a non-ABS tranny, there is no difference. You need a 5 speed non-abs driveshaft.

Just goto nissan and say you need a manual pilot bushing and throw out bearing for a 240sx. They should be able to find it if they aren’t too lazy!
