you can buy the transmission crossmember too but no guaruntees it will work. i would suggest buying the rbmount kit. i bought one off ebay for like 199 bucks and it works great. welds look awesome and it comes with the transmission mount for the 240sx swap.

The crossmember bolts directly to the frame, where the S13 did.

As far as trans mounts. use a KA-Automatic. I used the RB25 transmission mount. I would not advise it. I may still have my templates though..

You may want to go with a mount kit for your shifter to line up. Mine is cocked forward about a half-inch. I hear that with the mount kits (Mac and Top Hat) they also lower the engine down and back about an inch. If you are using the stock 25 intake manifold, this is a good thing.
