6 speed
#201
ok. i just had a thought. so im stupid, i forgot that the 6spd takes quite a bit less than the 5spd. so now im thinking that my pass axle seal might not be leaking. but wouldnt the fluid leak from both axles if its overfilled?

SHE LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
we got it to run for about 3 seconds earlier then couldnt get it started again. so we left it alone and tried again now. a couple of tries to get the sensor in the right place and we got it. it smelled and smoked but it ran. im so pumped.

We had to drill out the tranny a little bit becuase of the timing ring offset. We had my buddy lay under the car and hold the sensor in place. He also moved it around till we heard it fire. Then he just kept it in place and it started. I'm drilling and tapping the hole as we speak.

once im done tapping and mounting the cps ill take a boatload of pics and vids.
any ideas on what i asked about the gear oil leakin? i put my finger in the fill hole but i didnt feel anything, but the car is also jacked way up in the air. so once i get the sensor hooked up then ill drop it and check again. i just dont understand why, if the trans was overfilled, why it would leak out of the pass axle only?

on the pass side? the pics i posted were of the ds, which is fine. the oil was leakin outta the pass side. does it normally leak out the ps or both axles when u over fill an manual?

The normal oil level is above the bottom of the axle seals anyways. (ie. the bottom of the filler plug hole is above the bottom of the axle seal)
How else would the carrier bearings see lubrication?
Change your axle seal.

yes definately. i still think the spacer might work, but id say this route was much easier, and i recommend it if you can afford to do it. theres already a noticable difference in the revability of the engine. and the stage 2 isnt as hard to break in as i thought. theres a few minor things i noticed already.
-since the shifter cable cover is only held in with one bolt, i can hear much more noise thru that hole.
-i dont have the factor shifter cover under the car, i can hear a bit of noise thru that also.
-i overtightened my belts so now my car sounds s/c. and the brakes were a bit dodgy, but theyve gotten much better.
-the alignment isnt as off as i thought it was going to be, but it pulls to the right.
other than that its awesome having 6th. havent tested out the hlsd yet, but it goes straight when i go 1/2ish throttle, which is an improvement. its a much different feel than im used as far as cable vs rod shifters. acceleration feels strong is every gear. 100mph@3000rpms FTW!

Im looking at something with the 350 flywheel. The timing ring that Travis sell is streight just like the the stock 350 timing ring. Matt had to move the cps sensor to the Right to move over the cps ring. Well I took an auto a32 ring and place on the 350 flywheel and the off set shifts it back to the left (closer to the block) So maybe the cps sensor would not have to be moved. I need to try to bolt it up and see!

The 350z/G35 flywheel is a bit different from the FWD VQ35 flywheel. The CPS ring on the Z/G sits further away from the engine.. the FWD ring sits about 1/2" closer towards the engine.. That's why you see a big gap between the original CPS ring and the VQ35 CPS ring that's installed.
Also.. did you swap over to the FWD flywheel starter ring? There pitch and tooth count is different between the FWD and RWD flywheels..

I wonder if they would wear into a quieter pattern after a whole? I know thats the case with my 1/10 scale stuff some times.
