auto -> manual using RB clip question
hey, i just got myself an automatic S14 and i want to do the RB25 swap + manual transmission. I know ill need the clutch cylinders and a bunch of lines etc. I just need to know if i wil be able to use the ones that come with the clip and just swap them to the 240SX or will i need to get the 240SX ones. If i do have to get differnet ones from the 240SX, does it matter if they are from the S13 or S14? Thanks for your help yall,Tom

Just playing "what if" games online with part vendors... different part numbers come up on S13 & S14.
Hmm.... most likely the same bore, but the outlet line could be in a different location. Ditto on the RB clip. I suspect all three clutch master cylinders are the same diameter...
As to "pedal swapping" -- look up underneath the dash at the pedal box. Quite often the pedal box was the same between the MT or AT.... just a matter of adding the clutch pedal, and changing out the brake pedal (not as wide on a MT).
Could the RB pedal box be used? Seems reasonable, but I would not expect a "bolt in" operation.... then again might be worth a try. Obvious the RHD metal clutch line would have to be replaced.
