z-car to m30

Nov 30, 2003 1 Replies

I have a 1991 Infiniti M30 Convertable



It's a great car....but.... I HATE automatic tansmissions


Anybody know if a manual tranny from a 300zx will bolt in to the M30 ? Would the computer have to be changed ????


It might be a nice little winter project


Thanks

No, the computer should be OK but the driveshaft might need some work, then there is the issue with shift linkage (no hole in the floor!) and part of it bolts to the floor, mounting pedals, clutch cylinder etc etc etc. Years ago I did a couple of auto to manual swaps, lost my butt both times and it was on simple cars (76 280z and 1st gen RX-7). It's WAY more work than it initially appears..
