help, prep work VE 5SPD!

Would like to know from you pro's out there what I can start doing now, while my car is still an auto...to make less work for me later. I was thinking that I could go pick up a clutch pedal assembly and clutch master cylinder.....would I be able to install that and have no interferance other than the clutch pedal being there...and what else could I do and still have my car driveable.. and anyone got info on how they installed the clutch pedal assembly and master cylinder and maybe tips how to mount the pedal? Thanks

-Shock211- did the swap on his VG he might have some insight

KlownPower did it too on his VG

part #'s might be different on a few things, but installation will be the same.

This just occurred to me...you probably need to get the brake pedal, too. I think the AT brake pedal is wider than that of a manual tranny car. You need to double check with guys that have done the swap.

your probably right....because I was looking at that earlier today and was like, "hmmm where is this clutch pedal gonna mount, not much room next to this brake pedal, gonna have to shave an inch off each side...hmm.."
seriously, that was my thought ealrier, even though Id just get a smaller brake pedal.
And can I be reasured that if I decide to do the swap and not swap for the VI manifold, that my car wont blow up and for most part should be normal...and also, if I do that, can I still use my stock auto ecu?..I know I have to rewire like 4 wires to get a few things working properly.
