    Great info guys...

    I also remember the mech telling me that he imported a RWD 4AGE from Japan that came with an auto box...now..I have not ever heard of a RWD 4AGE running an auto as I thought only the lower spec 3A-Us like mine had the auto options...any comments? Am I being taken for a ride here

    I would recommend buying a complete frontcut, as you get all the gear for the hydraulic clutch conversion with it, as well as everything (bar fuel setup) you'll need to complete the conversion.

    Even the most retarded mechanic could do it. bolt out, bolt in, win.
    You can have any brew you want... as long as it's a Datsun / Corolla / What is that?

    Anyone know what one could expect to pay for the labour alone for conversion to be carried out?

    This is not counting the parts cost, therefore I assume would include removal of current engine, installation of 4AGE, wiring, fuel system setup etc etc.
