Winter plans, need help with transmission picking - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

So over the winter i plan on doing the gt2871.64, hopefully like 370hp

anyways, my tranny has failed me multiple times, and its time for a new one.

I need help deciding the cheapest, but most reliable tranny setup

I can either replace the syncros, and take the gears to touge factory to get them (forgot what its called..

) . Supposedly that is good for 400hp

I can buy a used ka tranny, but idk if it will hold up

I also can do a z32 tranny, but didnt really look into that.

So what would you guys suggest?

Drivetrain is stage4 clutch(CC) , 9lbs chromo fly, steel 1 piece driveshaft, kaaz lsd.

Thanks

Z32 tranny with adapter plates

Mazworx Z32 adapter kit and trans... you'll never replace another one. And if you happen to make enough power to blow it, they are a dime a dozen and can be had for $250 or less...

are they good for the HP ?

Here's a spoon full:

SRVG Adapter Kit

If not, I say get a fresh rebuild and WPC treat your gears and synchros and cryotreat the whole thing.
