Hi folks i know there is loads of threads on manual conversions but i just wanted to make sure that i have everything needed and off the car

 

prop

manual ecu

clutch and flywheel with bolts

gearbox with gearshift mech and gear knob

10 x bell housing bolts

6 x gearbox mount bolts

spacer plate

interior piece

Is there anything that i have forget and also is everything needed there like the bell housing bolts and gearbox mount bolts? Id like to keep as much as possible if i do not need to sell it with the manual conversion. Cheers

I posted this list a long time back .....

 

Gearbox

Gear lever

New leather gear lever boot + 2 rubber boots underneath

Master cylinder

Slave cylinder

All hydraulic pipework

Pedal box

Flywheel

Pressure plate

Clutch disc

Throw out bearing

Front half of the propshaft

The plate that sits between engine & gearbox

Wiring loom for the reverse & neutral gearbox switches

Wiring loom for the alternator

Both clutch servo vacuum tanks + pipework

 

I would also recommend replacing all the cheap rubber bits like dust seals and so on, plus the gear shift bush and the gearbox rear mount & prop centre bearing.

on this also mine is a UK spec so has the little oil cooler does that have to come off with it as well or do the holes on the gearbox just get blanked off?

the manual ECU isn't necessary, but seing as you have it, and the balance is good if you get one, but just as easy and good to T into the vacuum feed for the brake servo...

is the bell housing bolts, gearbox mounting bolts and interior trim piece around the gearshift needed as well?

The trim peice is the same (if by that you mean is the square hole where the auto lever was), you just need the gator and the rest of the gear stick assembly...

 

The bell housing bolts are different, manual : http://www.300zx.co.uk/cgi-bin/manual.cgi?list=mt&dir=&config=&refresh=&direction=forward&scale=0&cycle=off&slide=6&design=default&total=37

 

Auto : http://www.300zx.co.uk/cgi-bin/manual.cgi?list=at&dir=&config=&refresh=&direction=forward&scale=0&cycle=off&slide=97&design=default&total=194

 

Using that guide, and by looking at the gearbox to get the correct length of unthreaded shank, and an auto bolt for the thread, I went to my local nuts and bolts specialist and bought what I needed... I think some of them are the same, so you might not need them all, but it cost me under a fiver for 8.8 HT bolts the right sizes.... HTH...
