  1. Oh, there is a blanking plate in the engine bay where the master bolts, just undo and you're in. I forgot to mention in my previous post you'll need to also add one more hole for the clutch pedal spring. Or (with small hands) you can get it into a small hole up in the pedal box which works perfectly fine.
  2. You can use the auto brake pedal, just cut it down and slip the manual cover over. You can bend up an auto brake pedal to be made into a clutch pedal. You don't need to change the pedal box, only add a stopper. I added one on the bottom "rail" of the pedal box as shown in pic one. And in regards to your other post looking for a clutch master, both the master and slave can be bought new from any Brake and Clutch place. I used Slacks Creek Brake and Clutch for mine (up here in QLD), they even got me a brand new clutch off the shelf. Let me know if you'd like some photos. I believe I've got some somewhere from when I converted mine, and I can do to the car and take photos of as it sits now.
  3. Speedo cable seems fine. turns nicely. I got it with my manual conversion and turns out auto and manual are the same. I'll be free all day sunday, still got my number somewhere? Just text me when you wanna pop in. PLZ, pm sent with number.
  4. Also towbar and ball.
  5. Free 240k / L series parts. 240k aircon and cut under dash plastic. 2x l24 auto boxes. 1 auto starter, torque plate and 2 converters. Old manual conversion stuff. Clutch master, slave, speedo cable. Front struts with brakes. Complete. Few auto conversion bits, shifter etc. Gogogo or else going to scrap. Pick up by Friday, can drop off for beer. Pick up is Mt Gravatt Brisbane.

    Can you PM the part numbers / or where you got all the rear bushes?

    Sorry to bump an old topic, but I didn't need to change my pedal box at all when I did a manual conversion in my 76 K Sedan. Only thing I had to do was drill in the clutch stopper. Every other circlip and pin was there for me. I got sent a pedal and a spring..
  12. Done some more research, using a all the pictures I've seen indicate long nose set up. Need the change the input shafts (25 to 27 spline), we in Australia are lucky, some NA S13s, U13 AWD Bluebirds, use 27 spline 4 bolt CV shafts that fit perfectly (apparently). Otherwise you need to change dust caps etc etc. I'll do some more research, could turn out cheap being as we are in Australia.

    Anyone who deals with Ramjet be careful.. My mates have had dealings with him in the past and not saying they've gone bad, but stuff didn't turn out to what it was or wasn't.

    Probably more drug money.

    When bogans get classics..
  16. Correct me if I'm wrong, but we need longnose R series diffs, are subaru diffs long or short nose?

    Nice work mate! Gotta jump on them hey.. When I saw mine listed, I got on the blower straight away with cash in my hand..
  18. Hoybo posted a post in a topic in 240K Skyline
    Would, but I need the base 3tm Ecu first. Only got a 3ta (Auto ecu).

    And onto the mod front; Sourced some R31 Import Struts (100mm brake spacing), so figuring out what to do with those. Probably cut them into coilovers and put on the biggest best brakes I can squeeze under 14 inch wheels. Also work on fitting wheels. Might be getting a l20et, seeing how it turns out this week. Should be interesting swap. Old school is best school. Gotta start sourcing bushes and a rear sway bar kit (I know a guy who can get one, might have to group buy 5 to 10 if anyone else is keen PM me). Find or make front strut brace. Not sure whether to cut my spare wheel well out, it's quite rusty and with all these "hoon" laws I don't want my car taken over something silly. Thoughts? Ps - I know it's a long shot, but I'm chasing a 3TM VL Turbo Manual ECU, if anyone knows of any for sale, let me know.

    And finally after being sick for 3 weeks and not really knowing any auto electricians I gave it a go myself. Bridge Blue (Constant power) to Red/Black and all sweet. Took her to get a fuel tank of fuel, put some air in the tyres and went around the block a few times. Drives soooo sweet. Manual just brings the car out of it's shell. Definitely need new rear bushes, clunk clunk clunk .
  21. Pretty sure I got a spare bonnet stay. Assuming 4 door and 2 door are the same.

    So after all that rain, some personal issues, not much $$$ work and such, my car is finally back together. It was running for a few days, I then had to modify the clutch master, bolted it all back together (btw, I'm pro at manual pedals if anyone needs a hand) and now it won't fire.. It has everything it needs, and it you hold it onto "Start" it'll keep firing, but when I let the key onto "On" it just dies.

    Bet he's happy!
