Slower 5speed swap? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I just dropped an overhauled KA24DE, with jun lite flywheel, ACT street strip clutch, and 5speed tranny into my S13 Vert.

When this motor set was in my S13.5 project car it felt much faster than it does in my S13 Vert. For that matter the vert's original KA24DE motor felt faster with the slush box auto tranny it.

The engine is running great, and revs just the same as before. There is the possibility that the combination of the heavier nature of the vert and me becoming accustom to my SR20DET powered S13.5 that has gone on a weight loss diet is warping my perceptions.

Has any one else experienced this after a 5 speed swap on a vert, or a hardtop for that matter?
