Does any one know of any good place that I could get my 5speed tranny built? I seen where neal had his done but they did not seem to think to that you would still have to shift to 3rd easy.

 

bump anyone!

 

you could try something like this http://www.sr20forum.com/showthread.php?t=189124

Looks similar to a maxima tranny inside.

 

yeah but would any of this stuff even come close to working in a maxima tranny?

 

Why not a 6speed? Should be good for a bit more WHP stock correct?

~Alex

 

yeah that may be an idea but what all is involed to due the swap? And what type of power are they good for?

 

Not sure, exactly as I wont have a FWD VQ for a long time. Theres been alot of talk in random posts lately just search it.

Tranny mount, throwout bearing spacer, and some minor custom work to run shifter cables instead of the rods. That's about it, IIRC....

 

If I use the spacer can i use the 4th gen flywheel and clutch?

 

Yes you can.

 

i think there will be a CEL on if you do that swap. i know that tilley did that swap on his car and he said that the stock 6spd clutch can hold some power.

 

Tilley's mid-11s runs were on a stock 6spd clutch. It was slipping by the end, but hey....

 

ok well right now Im working on putting a 03 spec v tranny in my 95. from what I can Tell by some diragrams that they are the same and it will bolt up. ill use a 5.5 gen clutch and flywheel.

 

Why? The 5.5 gen flywheel is a LOT heavier...

 

IM getting a lighten flywheel. That way I can get the better clutch too. there are not many 4gen clutch that hold up to 500whp.

 

Ah. Good thinking.

If you're looking for something that will hold power, maybe you can use a 350Z clutch? I think SR20DEN knows a thing or two about how to make that work...

 

im Sorry ive found my answer Bullet proof 5 speed,Theirs not such a thing

 

MardiGrasMax had one....

 

FWD 6-speed and Z33 clutches are interchangeable.

 

Don't you need a TOB spacer?

 

If you're using a FWD or RWD 3.5 clutch you're using a FWD or RWD 3.5 flywheel, which means you don't need a spacer.

 

No he didnt that why he parted the car out because of the on going sogga with the trannys. Im looking to put down 450 to 500hp I dont care if I must build the motor to do so.

 

i just have a line up of trannies that i will go through.

 

Have you thought about heat treating or cryo treating the tranny parts?
That's the only way I could think to makes the parts stronger.

But probably very costly.

 

Its not as much as you think. But it will help very little. I talk with over 15 performance tranny shops last week and they told me the gear in the maxima 5 speed are just to dinky to do anything with and with trying to push 350 to 450hp through one it would fail time after time even with heat treatment. their just to flimsy and brittle
