VQ 6speed vs SR 6speed
3:57 AM 4/28/2008
I was wondering if anyone had these 2 laying around the shop. Considering pretty much all nissan rwd 5speed transmissions have interchangeable parts (with the exception of the VG transmission and rb25). And is the same with the automatic transmissions. I want to know if the rear portions are interchangeable just like the KA and 5speed SR transmissions.
From what i've been lead to beleave the VQ 6-speed is one of the toughest boxes nissan has built. (except for the second gear syncro) So would be the one that will last you the longest out of the two. The only issue is that the VQ box is bigger, and that may (or may not) mean that some floor "adjustment" will be required to get it to tuck up.
Ban Low Performance drivers... Not High Performance Cars
I'll look for the pictures of the comparison of the VQ box against others. The VQ box owns the SR one.
