^ +1, but it shouldnt cost you too much. depending where you get your parts and if you do it yourself or have it done.

just for parts with used pats rangeing from 250-600. depends what you are going to go with like nissan parts or kragen, and if you are going to go to any junkyards and craigslist some items. labor is about 500-1000. its not that hard if you have some mechanical experiance but if you are asking about both you probably dont have much and i bet you dont have any tools either. i say just look for a MT 240sx unless the car is like 500 bucks.

ALso their is lots of information posted on this topic and in multipule forums please do not clutter us with these threads that have been asked xxx,xxx,xxx times.

Hope this helps and enjoy your time on Zilvia

you guys all fail. If the OP had searched he would have found a FAQ that outlines the install and the costs. The Search button is your friend use it before asking questions like these and you want have to waste bandwidth with these redundant threads.

Sometimes the search function does not work as great as you would think.

I find Nico's search page works a lot better then here at Zilvia. Also if you don't use the correct search words, you could be searching for hours.

I understand the whole "If you would search" which do come in play on certain Noob questions, But the amount spent on typing "Hey search dummy" and clicking reply, you could had said you are looking about $200-$600 depending on where you get your parts. Or if you didn't know all the facts to the swap, just don't respond. Right?

OP I just finished this swap myself the other night. Very easy to do. Just get a list of all the parts that you need. Drilling the holes in the firewall for the master cylinder is easy. You can actually do this in your driveway, instead of having a shop do it. But if you need a shop to install, call your local shops to find a price on labor.
