Does N E Body Know What Harnesses Are Needed To Do The Vq35 Tranny Swap..to 5gen Auto....to My Understanding It Hasnt..been Done...is This Worthwhile..ne Info Would Be Greatly Appreciated...

 

Umm, it's the same thing ... Minus the shifter mecahnics, gated vs straight line. Internals are the same as well as gear ratios.

 

Why?????????

 

cuz i wanna put a 5.5 gen transmission in my 2k max...

 

Guess what...you already have one...

 

lol...ok i know that but i want the sportonic that u 5.5gens have...

 

Its not a sportronic, it's just gated. The 6g has the 5A with the +/- "sport" option.

 

We don't have that. Our tranny is the same as yours, minus the gated shifter. What you're thinking of is the 6th Gen 5 speed shift-o-manual (whatever the hell it's called)...

 

Don't do a complete swap just b/c of the shifter. That would be foolish, getting the 6g 5A would be better, as you would have better gearing, and the sport ish you want.

 

Yes, the 6th gen 5speed auto would be worth the swap. It would make hte car much faster because of hte shorter gears...

 

Nissan should've done that (5A) in the autos a long time ago. It would do wonders for the 3.0 off the line, and work really well with the DEK power curve.

 

so guys what are the solutions...what harnesses and parts would i need..to do the swap..its sounds expensive..but i might go along and do it....i just need some info...

 

You still stuck on the 5-5.5? Have you ever driven an auto 5.5? The harnesses should be all the same. Just change the shifter assembly out.

 

So Basically If I Buy A 5.5 Gen Transmission Its Should Bolt Rite Up To My Engine And All Of The Ecus?.....are There N E Links Or Experts That Can Show Me This....so I Can Prove It To My Mechanic Who Thinks It Cant Be Done...

 

In my opinion, I don't think it would be worth it. I'm contemplating swapping to 6MT once the powertrain warranty goes.

 

^^ have people done this...dont they use different mounts

 

i drove my uncle AUTO 03 max and it shifts pretty slow... i dont know why. you guyz have any ideas??

 

VB Mod. ..

 

for the 6 spd swap do you need the 3.5 flywheel or you can just use the 3.0 flywheel,, i heard the 3.5 has a smaller flywheel and pressure plate would be smaller again i'm not sure

 

just convert it to a manual; not much point for switching to the 5 speed auto for the reasons stated..

Now a 6 speed swap would be interesting, but I believe that it's not a simple bolt on swap.

 

it's not a simple bolt on. i dont know for sure but i dont even think anyone's ever done it. then again for some odd reason i have this VAGUE memory of someone with a GLE doing the swap....that'd be sick

 

ask tilly about the 6 speed swap, he knows all about that generation gapping stuff
