I was looking for you while doing a gear swap on my Q... Put 4.11's from an R33 out of Australia. The early Z32TT uses the RE4R03A 51×79 transmission. OOPS, It was Johnny Rocket, but the info on the transmission is correct.

Look for info on my Z32 trans swap. Doable with lots of work an an adapter. NA and TT trans are the same internally.

Wes... Roughly how many hours and cost to go 5-speed? I should just go with launch control, but God, I do miss a clutch... BTW; I renamed My Baby, what do you think? Scroll up... lol

250 for z32 trans or 400ish for z33 trans
400 for adapter plate
70 for machine work on bellhousing
100 flywheel
399 for a spec stage 3 clutch
150 for shorter shifter bracket
179.99 for driveshaft mod
~50-75 for a trans bracket for the z32 or use the stock one for z33

Time isnt too long, I pulled my engine but it shouldn't be too hard keeping it in.

Tempting... Maybe down the road. I have a few other small things and paint, which isn't going to be cheap...
