Ive been searching around on the org for someone that have done a 5 spd conversion and the only one i can find is kev, but income tax time is coming around and im trying to figure out what parts would i have to gather up to do it. Im taking 30 days off from work in april so im hoping that i can do it then, my brother and I that is bc he's a mechanic and he's good as hell.

 

Kev and Dave B. are the two you need to talk with.

There is a NICE writeup on a 4th gen swap somewhere that is pretty much the same. Kev knows where it is.

Are you following Kev and going for a new trans or going for a used?

 

I was planning on finding an 5spd in a yard and getting the parts off it im prob gonna compare new parts to old parts and see the price difference depended on which way i go.

 

Definitely call Dave Burnette(800-251-7278) for the new prices.

If I were you, I would look for a used AE trans, but supposedly they are VERY scarce. You will need the AE axles if you find the AE trans..

 

Why AE? and do u have aol or aim?

 

'cuz the AE's have a VLSD.

 

tru, I have to back to work in an half an hour or so so chatting would be alot quicker than posting. But i never knew the AE's had VLSD

 

http://www.car-parts.com Sometimes you can find VSLD trannies.

 

Ive been waiting so long for my car to get fixed so could take care of some business in GA once its in the shop now. Once i do that my income will increase by about 100% which will leave me thinking like should i mod up my car or get a new one, but i think ill just mod up my car bc im pretty sure eventually ill see something else i want.

 

No, sorry.

I don't need no stinking aol/aim, I got Maxima.org. At least when the server is actually working.

 

 

Heh, I need a lil direction though, kev if ur car didnt have a sun roof would u have gone ahead and done all the mods u did? that one thing I hate about my car and i dont want to get one installed bc everyone say they leak in a few years.

 

why not just sell your auto Maxima, and find a 5 speed Maxima...

unless you want to spend 30 days of vacation screwing with your car...

wouldn't you rather spend 30 days putting on mods?

racing at the track...

or anything else for that matter?

my 2 cents, even if you didn't want it...

Would i be askin for opinoins if i didnt want it. Your right. But would have to wait longer to do that the way i want to.

 

Me--><--Kev

 

Im about to head back to work. Ill be back later on.

 

This guy has done it. I still don't kno if this guy is on the org, but he can definitely answer some questions. He even knows about some problems doing engine swaps for maximas when i asked him...check it out... http://www.hlh0501.com/

 

Thanx
