hey i was thinking of buying a cefiro but the problem is that its auto and i prefer a manual. only problem is finding a manual cefiro. anyway could someone please tell me all the parts i would need for a manual conversion? at the moment all i know is that it needs a gearbox, clutch cylinders etc. i was wondering if someone could please list out everything.

also i was wondering whats the market value for a 1990 cefiro with an rb20de

I paid 5k for my RB20E auto cefiro, but the interior and paintwork was immaculate, save a few scratches on the bumper.

I'd be aiming for close to that depending on the condition of the car and the year.

As for manual conversion, peace of piss.

Read up this article here http://d1nz.org.nz/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2541

The original write ups for auto/manual, na/turbo and 4/5stud conversions are on the first page, but the auto/manual conversion has been rewritten on the last page (page 20). The pictures on the first page don't work, but you can find them about halfway through the thread.

      Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.

      Are RBs worth building reliability wise

      By Hendasto · Posted

      At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!

      Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.

      https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
