Hey everyone im going to do the conversion and have a few questions.. what common problems do most people encounter when looking for parts/ installation. My car is a non-abs model, does that mean that i have to find a driveshaft from a non-abs car? Last question, what retailers/ websites offer the cheapest deals on master cylinders, i hear that they go bad and leak..

all replies are greatly appreciated, i did do a good amount of searching..

problems? not having all the nuts/bolts.
be sure u have em all before starting. i found out the hard way. (PP bolts, shifterplate bolts, transmission bolts)
yes, use manual driveshaft non-abs.
go to like autozone or watever and get a reman'd MS. are u talkin about clutch ms or brake?

clutch maste cylinder.. alrite thanks alot, and i suppose the dust cover is also one of those hard to find items ( that gakset type thing that goes between bell housing and engine)

Yeah thats the backing plate. 5spd swap is very simple. The preparation and parts is the hard part, installation is the easy part. Double check to make sure you have everything. Tokico master and nismo slave for good parts.

make sure you have mt flywheel bolts and pressure plate bolts

The hardest part for me was actually finding the parts. I did the swap on my s14 a few years ago and it seems so many people are doing this swap now days it's just hard to find the parts. But you have an S13 so it should be a bit easier for you though...

Best advice in this thread so far.
I would get the MC from the dealer, reman auto store ones are garbage.
Change your rear main seal and clutch while you're at it.
