90' na auto swap to tt manaul

[Mike9812121298]

hey thanks for the info, ive been looking for something to help me out. i have a 90 n/a auto, and i found a wrecked tt manaul. is it much work to change over to manaul? also if i have the tt whole car, is there anything else i would need to do the install or does it pretty much just change over? thanks for any info u could give me.

pretty easy swap. you need the tranny, shifter, different driveshaft or the half shaft of the 5-speed driveshaft as long as you also have a 2seater, slave cylinder and master cylinder along with clutch pedal, hydraulic lines from master to slave, clutch assembly including pressure plate, and flywheel.

beings you will be using a TT transmission you will need a TT flywheel for the starter to reach the gear ring of the flywheel. the TT flywheel is also heavier and bigger so i do not know how much this will effect the performance of your N/A motor. may notice a slight drag but the 5-speed may offset the problem. shouldnt be noticeable reguardless.

there are also a few tricks with wiring to get the reverse lights and the speedometer to read correctly.

good luck. its really not that bad of a swap.

yeah sry i am just trying to finger out the problems that i might run into before i jump into the swap. im buying a 93 tt manaul for 1,500. it has upgraded ecu, greddy exh, one peice driveshaft, shiftkit, and some stillen ground control something. do u think this is a good deal? its comming with everything on the car, it even still runs. but the back end is wrecked. can i just strip the tt and just replace everything on my car for the most part? plan on up grading all the brake lines, and prob clutch lines. i called around to a few shops and one told me for 3,500 to 5000 they would do the tt and manual swap. for that price i would rather do it my self,lol. they were also telling me that u have to pull the wiring harnest out of the cassie, or something like that. anyideas? thanks

it is a deal if the motor runs good. plan on spending a good chunk of change and replacing some OEM parts while you are doing the swap. the TT swap is not that bad of a swap but it is a little more involved and requires more tools and knowledge.

do some research...the net is flooded with information about TT swaps on 300zx as it is becoming a common thing.

are the splines different on a manual n/a driveshaft, than a manual TT driveshaft?
