the parts for my maxima came into day...and of course i'm super amped

sending pics to my facebook of my epic parts and all the etc, leave the parts in the car and drop of the maxipad to my mechanic....he pulls it into the shop to prevent any theives from breaking in..and he calls me...'it maybe the bearing in your transmission, not the throwout bearing'

i mean, i'm all about doing preventative maintenance..but man i dont feel like spending another $500+ for a transmission right now...i'm looking at $1500 to get it back on the road after its all done...definitely not looking forward to it..*sigh*

so sad to say...its a slim chance that my clutch kit/flywheel is going to solve my issue i need a drank!

 

that sucks man, hope it all works out for you

 

thanks man. i'm trying to find out if the 6spd will mate to the de-k and if anything else is needed or if i can use my 5th gen clutch setup

 

Its the same exact procedure to get the 6speed to work on a 4th gen.

And yes it will physically mate to the DEK. It will to any fwd VQ

 

gotcha. i'm not trying to fab..i've already been without my car for 3weeks and i'm not trying to go through that. thanks

 

No problem. 2 main thing you have to worry about with the 6 speed swap is the timing ring and the motor mount. Research and understand that 100% before you even start buying parts.

 

yea i did a little search this morning and saw a guy that did that trans swap in a fourth gen after i found out about the mount...alot in doing that swap...its almost as extensive as doing a auto-manual swap
