difficulty of a 5 speed swap into an auto 240?

i wanna get a 95 through 98 240sx but i rather get an auto and swap in the tranny myself?

how available are the parts for the entire swap?

has anyone here done it? any tips?

also one last question will the area where the shifter stick s out look all rigged because it use to be an auto or do i simply have to get a stick shift console?

thanks
shak

its quite a bit of labor and parts.

you will need:

trans spacer plate (between motor and tranny)
flywheel
clutch
pilot bushing
flywheel bolts
transmission
trans bracket
shifter
shift boot
driveshaft
clutch pedal
clutch master cylinder
clutch line
clutch slave cylinder

have to cut 3 holes in the firewall for the clutch pedal assembly
cut down your brake pedal
