OBSESSIVE_ENT. Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Sup everybody Ive been doing this 2jz swap for like forever and the sticking point now is gettin an afordable r154. then it it me, how bout a 350z tranny. they are a little cheaper and come in 6spd. my question is I believe the spline count is 24 and the 2j is 21. could input shafts be swapped? also anyone knows if the 6sp can handel as much as the 5spd r154? thanks.

jeph_tsi Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 that is a very strong transmission as long as you don't get the first couple years it was in production, there is no way the input shaft would swap as one is nissan, other is toyota and are different generations. you will need a custom flywheel, clutch, and bellhousing. the kit is out there for around 1800 (minus transmission). The problem is the length of this transmission, it can be shortened a little but iirc even at its shortest its still around 4" too long. the nissan transmission is stronger than the r154. What I'm curious about is how strong would the r154 be if you had it cryo'd... if you can do the tear down and rebuild yourself cryogenic treatment is 3-5$ per pound. I need to tear down my r154 because of problems with 5th gear shift fork and will likely to the marlin crawler upgrade and get all the forks/gears/shafts cryo'd.

OBSESSIVE_ENT. Posted February 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 i figured the length would be an issue. on one forum a guy makes a 1j adapter plate for 390 he said hes working on a clutch kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GINASQ Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 If you get the 6 speed make sure it has #CD009 stamped on it, those are the revised transmission that have the updated synchros etc. They came in the 05-06 G35/350z but a lot of people got them from Nissan through warrenty. Also, the trans from the VQ35/37HR engines have a concentric slave cyl its like inside the trans or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasQuest Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Yes they are internal slave cylinder transmissions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasQuest Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 Instead of the slave cylinder being bolted to the outside of the transmission it is adapted to the center shaft of the transmission. Not sure how you would adapt it to the Sq's factory clutch line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GINASQ Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 (edited) oh oh what does that mean Texas pardon my ignorance. my thing is i dont want to get the set up and then have to shift from the back seat. Gina i was aiming for the 07s. The 07' are the internal slave HR trans so like TexasQuest said the slave is inside. There are kits to use them with cars that have swaps and Brett Collins makes a kit that lets you use those transmissions but thats adding like $300 it'll be cheaper just to use the cd00# trans from the vq35de. Make sure if you do use an HR trans that it doesnt have 2nd gear issues. Edited February 23, 2013 by GINASQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OBSESSIVE_ENT. Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 great info, but back to the length issue again lol. the only guy i saw making an adapter was from an 09 post that is no longer active. I guess if this is too much of a bother I will stick with the r154 or by some insanity get the v60 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GINASQ Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 It's 31x10x11 without that tail shaft thingy, add 9" to the length with it, but you'll have to shorten it to get it in the conquest I believe. I want to know how well it'll fit our transmission tunnel for the 5-speed starquest.Try this guy I'm pretty sure he makes a kit, he makes the 1uz to z33 kit http://collinsadapters.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OBSESSIVE_ENT.

Keben Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Just to let you guys know, there's been talk about putting a tremec shifter and socket where the inspection cover is on the 350z transmission with a bit of modification. Apparently, it lines up perfectly on a mk3 supra and moves the shifter exactly where the shifter hole in on the tunnel, which means good news for us! Here the link to the thread. Not much technical info, but thought I'd share with ya'll. http://m.clublexus.com/forums/showthread.php?t=630367&page=23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clow340 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Why dont you get a 2wd ax15 out of a jeep, swap the r154 bellhousing in and use a ford or jeep clutch disk? There the exact same trans with different input shafts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
