C34 Laurel 5speed Conversion

[okidori]

Hey all,

I'm not sure if too many will be able to help me as I dont think the c34 is all that common in australia?

I plan on swapping my laurel from auto to manual in a few months and haven't quite figured out which bits to use. My friend told me to use an rb20 tranny and then a C33 5spd driveshaft will be bolt on, but didn't mention which tranny mount to use. I'd rather use a 25 tranny, is there a straight bolt on way for an RB25 tranny?

Also, does anyone know how I would rig up the handbrake cable, since the one on my car is the foot-handbrake.

I'm pretty sure I use a r33 or s14 pedal and maybe use the r33 lines from master to slave.

And I know to use the 33 ecu, thats common sense, and the wiring is just two wires i think, for the neutral switch.

It will cost me $3k to get it done professionally, but I'm trying to keep it about $1.5k at the most. I'm know how to do a 5speed swap, I'm just unsure of which parts to use.

I can get my speedo sorted out later, i just want to know what to use.

any help would be greatly appreciated.
