how can i get a 5-speed?!

[frosted flakes]

OK HERES THE DEAL....

I really want a 5-speed. I want less drivetrain loss. my automatic transmission is draining easily 10-15rwhp. I want a lightened flywheel.

I have an rb20det with automatic transmission. I can get a KA 5-speed pretty cheap from a guy here in town. what do i need to do to make it mate up to the engine?

What kind of clutch and flywheel? I heard using the 300zx NA clutch and flywheel should work.

Or do i have to fork over the $800-$1000 to get an R33 transmission?

Thanks again...

Did you look at your previous post about "will this work"? I have a five speed setup and will trade it for your auto set up.

YOU NEED TO SWAP THE FRONT CASE ON THE TRANS, BUT BEFORE YOU PUT THE FRONT CASE YOU HAVE TO GRIND ABOUT 1/4" - 1/2" OUT OF THE FRONT CASE WHERE THE MIDDLE SHAFT RUNS.

I HAVE A TRANS COMPLETED, WHICH JUST NEEDS TO BE SEALED..... WE HAVE BEEN SWAPPED AT WORK SO MY CO-WORKER HASN'T HAD TIME TO FINISH IT.

do you need the RB20 or RB25 trans?????We have both....

THE 300ZX FLYWHEEL WILL NOT WORK BECAUSE THE RING GEAR IS DIFFERENT THAN THE SKYLINE ONE, IF YOU COULD ADAPT THE RB20 RING GEAR TO IT THEN YOU SHOULD BE FINE. THE Z32 NA CLUTCH WORKS FINE (ITS WHAT I'M USING).

STEALTH Z...

look at the post i replied in "will this work." sounds like a good deal i just need to know the condition of the transmission and if it comes with clutch and flywheel...

FAST DATSUN...

Actually the z32 ring gear is the same but its the bolt pattern which is differentThe z32 is 8 bolt and the RB is 6 bolt at least for an RB20 dont know about a rb25

WHEN I LAID THE Z32 FLYWHEEL ON A RB20 FLYWHEEL THE RING GEAR WAS NOTCHED DIFFERENTLY WITH MORE TEETH IN A TIGHTER PATTERN.
