I would think you would have to change both see if you can get the bcm and ecu if you can I would but that sounds like a lot of work bud good luck hope the best for you thats just my opinion I may be wrong I’m not a expert yet lol

I would think anything on the clutch would plug into the harness bud since you are swapping harnesses too

My question exactly. Also the automatic transmission bushing is not budging. I am trying to break it still. Does anyone have the template to drill the holes for the master cylinder??

Thanks in advance

I got the padel installed. I use a 3.5 inch stick to measure from bottom brake bolt to the clutch bolt. Marked it and drilled. You can see the progress on my Instagram 965spec.

Default Pilot bushing transmission not going in

Hi all. I got all the parts and everything is done. When i try to put the manual transmission back in their is an inch gap. It is not going in because the neck of the main transmission shaft is a bit wide at then end. Should i machine it or just remove the pilot bushing? Or is the main transmission shaft a bit longer. I asked a local mechanic and he gave me a shaft off a 350z transmission and it looks different on the end that goes into the crank as it has no diameter increase and a bit shorter. Any ideas??? Please help!!!
