Auto to Manual switchover

[New-to-240z]

Hello everyone,

I will be swapping out my auto to a manual conversion here in a very short time, and have just a few questions.

I have someone who has a 1974 260z pedal assembly that he can sell me. I was just wondering if this assembly would work for my 1973 240z. (this will be both the clutch pedal and brake pedal, seeing as from what i've read, the brake pedal for a MT is smaller then the AT.)

I also have someone who can sell me a 1972 240z pedal assembly with the actual hard line from the MC to the SC. He on the other hand has been hard to get in touch with and i don't know if he'll come thru. He is very busy lately and hasn't returned my e-mails.

Anyway, i was just wondering if anyone here might have one in their JY they have seen or what not? I have checked around in Orange,CA and haven't come up on any. If u could help me out it would be a GREAT GREAT HELP. If not, Any information on what parts will work and won't would be GREATLY helpful incase i do come accross something.

Thanx again o wise ones . . .

-Matt

I recommend that you use the search function . This has been done many times.

i have read each article about the swap out. My question still remains though. I just wanted to know if anyone here had done the swap on a 73 with the same year parts i am looking into getting. The swap that is very detailed was for a 71 using 72 parts. He found that there was a difference. I'm hoping someone here can elaborate on the parts i can get my hands on.

I'm just hoping for a little more help. I have a good understanding, just wondering if anyone here has any ideas or words of knowledge

This is very hard to pin down, as 240Zs changed a lot, not just year to year, but sometimes month to month. Short answer is that you can probably make it work, but don't be surprised if the parts don't match exactly.
