missing stuff on tranny

[sifu]

i got a tranny for my 5 speed swap but everything is missing on it.. like the throw out bearing assembly, sensors, and switches

what should i do? buy a new tranny?? or buy everything

[ALTRNTV]

I would just buy the stuff you're missing. Worse comes to worst, sell the tranny and buy a complete one.

[sifu]

this is my bellhousing.. you put the throw out bearing on that shaft right? is there anything else i'm missing besides a fork? is there a second part to the TOB? i was told that the throw out bearing is too small and theres something that mounts it on.

don't really need all the sensors, just reverse lights if you car, speed sensor for speedometer, and nuetral position switch might be useful

[aznpoopy]

before you do the swap make sure you put on the rear extension seal and the gasket thats right behind that plate in your pic.

Before you do the swap read every thing that you can find on doing it. There are several very good posts on doing the swap in archives. By the way I would try to find a switch for reverse lights from somone, new OEM from Nissan they are $45.00. http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=21181&highlight=trans This is a great thread.

No, Nissan dealerships don't sell Nissan parts. :bash:

[sifu]

i went to http://www.overnightautoparts.com/

i'm ordering a Release Bearing Retainer Spring and release bearing holder for a total of 20 dollars.. do i need a clutch release arm also? i have a fork and TOB already

[NemeGuero]

clutch release arm = fork

[sifu]

Your pic needs a little help, but I think the first one is your reverse light switch. If you have a continuity tester check across the two wires both without pushing on the switch and depressing it. Without depressing switch= no continuity. Depress switch = continuity, then switch is good. That should work for all the switches. Only one you realy need is reverse lights, the others will fill the holes in your tranny nicely.

is there anything else i'm missing besides a speed sensor and clutch hardline?

i've searched through a lot of manual swap guides but none really answer my question. i spent a lot of time on this post, so if you guys could help me, i'd really
appreciate it.

thanks

[NemeGuero]

Did you switch out the pilot bearing before you installed the clutch and pressure plate? If not, yank 'em off and DO IT. And where the heck is the rest of your slave cylinder? The pushrod and such? Where and how much did you get s14 pedals for? And your s14 tranny.

And do you have both springs?

[sifu]

i got everything for 800 in one package

the clutch slave cylinder.. i bought a brand new one from overnightautoparts.com
that one in the picture just came with the package

both springs to what? if it is the tranny you're talking about, i ordered a retainer spring

i might be buying a 98 manual ecu soon, it'll just hook up to my harness i have right now right?

anything else i need?

thanks neme

[NemeGuero]

Tha's it.. and where did you get those pedals/package?

[Jonnie Fraz]

Looks like you are on the right track. If I may make a suggestion, I would suggest that since you are there you might want to change out your rear main seal, also the front and rear seals on the tranny. Rear main is about $25.00 and the tranny seals are about $5.00 ea aftermarket. I got mine at NAPA.
I see that you have your auto trans out...I know that was fun. Good luck with your swap I just finished mine. Be patient getting the manual back up in there can be a bit of a bear...My s13 was a little tricky, it may be different for the s14

[NemeGuero]

Nope, its just as much a pain as the s13.

[sifu]

should i buy a 98 manual ecu for 100? and then sell my 96 ecu?

how is your car running jonnie?

[NemeGuero]

NO NO NO NO NO for $100?! I paid $30 for a 95 and $40 for a 96 ecu SHIPPED!! Hold out until someone less stingy is selling a 97-98 ecu. haha
and reply to my PM damn you! :naughty:

[sifu]

what is the crossmember mount? or is that the same as a transmission mount?
someone said i needed one and it costs 100 bucks..

[NemeGuero]

Yes, same as tranny mount. I paid $15 for mine FYI

[sifu]

did you get yours at a salvage yard?

[NemeGuero]

No, from these boards.

[jd-17]

s13 swaps are easy.............


good luck with this swap

[Buttasc0ttch]

I just got my 5spd. done. I took it in on Nov. 23rd., recieved it Nov. 26th, all I had to do is supply them with a d/s. The whole thing cost me 600.00, thats (install+parts), the car runs like a dream! I was gonna gather all the parts myself and just pay for installation but a friend of mine told me just to let them do it b/c they know what parts are missing/broken/wearing out/etc. Now I'm happy to drive my car again, glad it is no longer automatic! :hsdance:

[jd-17]

me and a buddy thats done it numerous times are doin it really soon (before xmas)but it will only take us a day to complete

[sifu]

1000 for parts (some are brand new)
600 for install
2 months car has had no tranny and been down

hopefully all this will be worth it

97 240's.. arghh

my auto ecu should just hook right up to the tranny without buying any harnesses right?

[NemeGuero]

Yes. and DAMN you spent alot.

[Jonnie Fraz]

Wow $1600 for a swap...ouch! I got realy lucky, my buddy gave me all the parts. I just had to buy new clutch, seals, and I did all the work myself. That included removing the doner trans. Took about 12 hours install time and at least twice that chasing around town getting the new parts...lol

[sifu]

barely anyone drives a 240 in tulsa,oklahoma and knows anything about them. so i didnt have anyone to help me.. i'm 17 and don't know THAT much about the 240 to do a swap on my own. sucks living in a hick town
