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

J

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..
