Manual swap quick ? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I'm in the process of swapping to manual from auto on my S14 and I have a quick question. According to the FSM, the auto dust cover and rear plate that goes between the block and flywheel is different than the manual. The auto is 2 piece, the manual is one. Will the auto plate still work with manual trans? Sorry for the newbie-ish question. Thanks in advance.

The 2 pieces on the auto are actually the rear plate and the dust cover. The manual apparently doesn't use the dust cover at all...thats according to the FSM.
