    converting the auto kesev to manual 4ac.... now up to the pedal box swap....

    putting a manual pedal box from an ae86... will it bolt straight in and with the hydraulic clutch do I need to drill any holes...

    I looked at it on the 86 and it looked like you would normaly have to remove pretty much everything from the car to get it out ( steering rack, brake booster, dash, etc.. )

    is anyone able to give helpful hints for this conversion from someone that may have done it once or twice ?

    Craig_AE86 and I did this one before, however we used an AE71 pedalbox into an auto KE70.

    you will need to get a holesaw bit to drill a hole for the clutch master, and this is a bitch, because you either have to drill from inside the footwell or make a guess.

    however there is no reason to take anything out apart from a few trim panels under the dash. from memory, you might have to drop down the steering column down, but this is no biggie at all, and I think it is just for access purposes.

    the best piece of advice I can give you is to look at how it goes together in your AE86, and then just transfer it over. It should be a fairly straightforward procedure.
    You can have any brew you want... as long as it's a Datsun / Corolla / What is that?

    so best way would be run a pilot hole from inside the car and do the whole sawing from outside ?

    yeah, fit up just the pedal box assembly and drill form inside, would be heaps easier I imagine, then just finish it up fromt he bay and hook up your clutch master, form what I remember seeing in my car, is one of the brake lines in the KE go right acorss where the hole needs to be drilled, so might wanna look into moving that somehow

    It would require the drilling of holes at the least, and a bit of grinding at the most I assume.
