What would YOU guys do with this S13? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Hey guys. Don't know if anybody's still following, but I'm rather mechanically inclined (though not even remotely close to skilled/trained), and did some poking around under the hood etc. While my clutch master cylinder is leaking a little bit (not a lot), the shifting problem is definitely either the pilot or throwout bearing.

I know this is a LOTTTT to ask, but since the car is technically driveable once started in first, would anybody have the time/equipment/inclination to help me drop the tranny? I'd happily pay you.

And if anybody knows the optimal engine speed to be shifting with little or "no" clutch disengagement so as to minimize grinding, I'd appreciate that.
