Hey guys, as most of ya know, I'm slowly rebuilding my 84 (AUS S3) from the ground up, its just a bare shell at the mo. Anyway, I figure now was a good time to start collecting the gear to do the auto to manual swap that it so desperately requires. I've sourced a S2 pedal box and clutch master cylinder, I was wondering what else I'm going to need.



The engine and gearbox I'm getting will be a 13BT with a supra 5spd gearbox most likely.

Nice.So your going with a T2 driveline then?

Yeah, well, whatever the equivalent I can get over here.

The S4 and S5 T2's are a nice setup.They should be enough power for your car.

So anyway, what other parts do you reckon I need for the auto to manual swap, or is that basically it? Just the master cylinder and pedal box and the transmission and engine will have all the rest with it.

And theres a metal hard line from the master to a spot on the firewall.Then it goes to a rubber clutch slave cylinder line to the slave cylinder.

i think all you need is the pedal box, tranny, tranny mount theres gotta be something i'm missing, its too easy

And the tranny tunnel hole will need to be enlarged a bit.I can't remember how much tho.

Arrghh! Are you serious! Is that hard to do?

I got the master cylinder with the metal piping and its cut off at the rubber hose, cos the wrecker reckons that it will depend on the tranny you get to what you need for the hose bit.

I've been looking for ages for a S2 or S3 for wrecking, so I could get parts, but in the end I had to go to a wreckers. I got raped. It cost me $250 for the pedal box and $50 for the master cylinder.

Hey Drifter,

I saw your website with all the pic's. looks great!

Cheers man, I've been really slack though, cos of work I'm only working on my car on Sundays https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif So I don't get much time to do anything.

sounds like me.except lately I've been busy sundays too. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif Yeah your site looks good.You might want to take measurements of your tranny shifter hole and compare it to a wrecked 5sp one and see how close they really are.I think you use the stock slave hose to any tranny but i might be wrong.ITs just easier to work with new hoses if they are rubber anyways.Make sure you know where thos hoses go too.

There is also the small problem of the automatic chasis having the hard mount closer to the rear of the car than in the manual chasis. Beware!!



At least that is how it is in the S3 here in the US. The 84-85 auto was a bit longer than the manual.

Yeah, I forgot to mention the you might need the standards rear mount as well.Damn those little things. :rant:
