Auto to manual conversion.

[Zedhead]

Hi Guys,  

I want to convert a 240z Auto to a 5 speed and need everything required to do so. 

If anyone has a clutch and brake pedal assembly and or a 5 speed box (preferably a 71A 280zx box I think) that is willing to part with them, please let me know.

Thanks 

Jeff

Do a search on this forum - what you need for the conversion has been covered before.

You need a 260Z 71B gearbox, but a 280ZX will also work. You may find the diff ratio will need changing too.
You might be able to collect the bits required from various sources, but if you want a 'one stop shop' 
for the complete conversion kit, perhaps get in touch with Les Collins: http://lescollinsracing.com/contact

Thanks for the advice Lurch. The only reason I asked about a 280zx box was because I was told the gearing would suit the auto diff.  As for the one stop shop, I think contacting Les might be the best solution. Cheers!
