master cylinder

[skizumers]

yo guys,I have a 89 automatic coupe. I need to know how you go about installing the clutch pedal and the clutch master cylinder. I have my sr20det in my car right now but I was looking at it today and wondering how the hell I am going to drill the holes to put in the master cylinder. Any suggestions...thanksda,skiz

Drill through the guides where the petal would go through. Yes, you have to drill trought the fire wall. Then in the middle of the holes you just drilled, you need to punchout/drill a 1.5 inch hole. I might be a little bigger. Also don't drill through any wires. You also may have to take a green or black plastic little box and tie it off or get it out of the way. I'm not sure it has been a couple months since i have done this. Nick

Yeah, there is already a spot for the clutch. All you have to do is drill where the two pieces of metal stick out. That's where the bolts go through. Then just drill out roughly in the middle of the cirlce youll see. I a small drill. It took a little longer than a big bit, but it still worked.

Portisroads,I just sold a radiator on ebay to someone of the exact SN is that you?

Anyway like everyone said just use the guides that are already in the firewall. Do you have the clutch lines from the clip or are you sourcing new ones?

[portisroads]

Yeah, that's me. HAHA small world. Thanks, by the way. Thanks to you I got a really nice engine and didn't have to get a front clip. I'm gonna film and take pics of the entire swap. I already have some really nice aftermarket parts to put on it. I'm gonna get the titanium exhaust up on the group buy. I'm really looking foward to that.

Very cool! Good luck on the swap and keep us posted.

I did not get the clutch lines with the clip. Now how do you go about installing the master cylinder? From what I have seen there is no way to drill holes to mount the master cylinder? Any suggestions guys?thanks,da skiz
