Holder Bracket under shift knobI know a guy who is selling all of these parts (minus the transmission) off a car he is parting out for $170 for all that stuff. He is taking the car to the junkyard this weekend, so it's best you contact immediately since these parts won't be available at that price anywhere else.

i have two Nissan 300z's 1 automatic and 1 5spd. 5spd is totaled and want to swap engine and transmission into the automatic. i have all the parts needed, but on the firewall of the automatic where the clutch master cylinder goes it feels like plastic. is there some thing that i need here or do i just punch the pedal shaft hole in it and dill the holes for the bolts or do i need to purchase an adapter of some sort.

I'm in the same process and saw a how-to by Bernie on TT.net saying that there is a plate covering the holes for the clutch master cylinder and is tack welded in. All you need to do is take off the plate and the holes in the firewall are already there. Since I am using all 5 speed parts, engine, transmission, EFI harness etc. is there any wiring mods that I need to do?I have seen that there is wiring needing to be done for clutch engagement for starting the car, but haven't really seen a "how-to" on specific wiring for nissantime and my situation, where we're coming in with all original 5 speed parts...
