I got an auto 93 240sx coupe and I got a manual s13 redtop frontclip with s13 body paneling, what I want to know is what can I reuse from the rhd clip for the sr20det manual swap for my lhd 240 can any of the things be swapped like the clutch and brake pedals,master cylinder, or just remake some lines to fit lhd I am mechanically inclined so making new lines not ruff for me I just want to know is it worth it the motor only has like 43-45,000 miles on it the whole motor looks almost new any input would be appreciated. If I'm swapping everything over from the clip why can't I use the sr's AC unit can the SR compressor be used if I can get a AC shop to make lines for it or do I have to use a ka compressor

You can use alot from the front clip! I'm pretty sure all the pedals can be used, and alot more. You can use the ac from the sr.... But if the ac from the ka works there is no point in switching to the sr pump because the ka pump bolts up to the sr ac bracket (only the front 2 bolts) that little mileage is very rare so if the price is right snag it. Just think of how many miles a 20 yr old car would have here.

Yea thanks for the info. My budget is small so whatever I can reuse is great. I got the frontclip from jdm online they sent me a compression test video an the whole thing with bodypaneling and shipping $3000 no complaints. The one fender got scratched in shipping an I asked if they can do anything about it an they would give me a discount on my next order and the clip ca.me less than a week.
