My m8 has a 5 speed manual out of a commy if your keen. Will be a lot easier with that one instead of the one in your
surf. He put a RB30 against a 4 speed manual in his nissan 4x4, it was a bit of a mish, got it in the end though.
I'm also putting RB30 into my hilux, & putting 4 speed auto in aswell. But im useing a remote transfer case to make it all
work. Only matter of shorting or lengthing drive shafts. Haven't got there yet though
