Help!!! I want to go from an auto to manual...
Well, it is not too hard to do actually, just a pain in the arse. PARTS LIST: Transmission Manual starter Clutch kit (I suggest a Centerforce) MSA sells them Pedals - both the brake and clutch (I have a set) Flywheel with bolts (I have that too) Clutch Master Cylinder (bolts right in) Slave cylinder rubber line to slave cylinder medal hydraulic line pilot bushing for the crankshaft (autos did not get one) I do not know if the driveshaft is interchangeable??? Also the rubber boot for the shifter and actually the center console is different, but I just made me a custom outer shifter boot. Works great and is a BUNCH cheaper than a new console. That is most of it from the top of my head. Let me know if you need any more help. Also I am in San Antonio (not too far from you) if you need visual help.

Dash mat
Well, the dash mat like the one you'd find at a nice place like Pep oys is a scrap of carpet that will be glued or velcro ed to your cracked dash. The dash covers from like MSA is a piece of plastic that actually covers the dash to make it look like a factory dash.

Egr Seal
It might work, it might not. It might hold. it might not. Just depends on MANY factors. The way I look at stuff like that is: -How much does it cost to fix it right? -Will it take longer to fix it once right or many times to patch it up? -Will it cost me more in the long run? (both in time and money) AND THE BIG QUESTION -Will it F%$# something else up that costs a lot more money?? (like the entire engine)

I have the same one as 2MANY. I really like it myself. feels really nice and it is flat on the bottom, doesn't squish my manly muscular legs.

when you fill it there is a bubble created and it has to pop. Therefore it will now be low.

P.S. you can use a square port header on a round port head, just not the other way around. -Bryan

Z availablitity
I myself have 2 240Zs. I am about to move to a small town just south of Fort WOrth Texas. Talk about being looked down upon. I don't even own cowboy boots. I also have a Nissan Pickup. I already feel like an outsider.

This is in San Antonio I have no title Basically it is a naked unibody with suspension and a rear end and half shafts. If no one takes it I am going to cut it up and take it to be recycled. I just need it out of my garage. -Bryan

Removing dash?
Don't get me wrong, it still sucks, but it isn't as bad as one might think. Pick a nice day with good cross wind. It can get pretty hot inside with no wind.

Removing dash?
Is all you are doing is swapping the clock?? If that is all just take out the glove box and go in from there. the entire dash is a LONG LONG day. You can get to it without trying to kill yourself. -Bryan
