Is this a good deal on a tranny? Durrrrr
 
350Z, 370Z, G35 and G37 manual transmission

Obviously it's cheap, worse case its needs to be rebuilt or something like that, how much in additional parts am I looking at to swap my 7at over.

Can't comment on the going prices But I have a good idea on what you'll need

1. Trans (Obvious)
2. Trans crossmember
3. Shifter
4. Flywheel
5. Pressure Plate
6. Clutch
7. Clutch slave
8. Clutch brake line
9. Clutch master cylinder
10. Clutch pedal
11. Driveshaft

Try looking for a wrecked manual trans Z at a local salvage yard :ugh2:

This way you strip it yourself and get everything you need to make the transfer in one shot.

Good Luck

Not to mention ECU, and instrument cluster. That's $2k right away.

Sell your car and buy a manual. And talk to Megan370Z

Going to take a ecu, interior plastics, new harness and all of the things listed above

Or just keep it since the 7at seems to be faster then 6mt at the track.

Y'all beat me to it lol

It's more of a long term project. I commute daily so the AT is better for traffic and mpg but eventually when it's paid off I'd like to convert the transmission to have more fun with it. I could care less about swapping the cluster or changing the shifter trim to make it look factory, hell by then it's probably going to only have 1 seat and a roll cage in it anyways.

is a MT ecu really needed? can we not flash the MT software on the 7AT ecu?

... I don't think you'll drive it without the cluster... Why not just sell it and buy the manual? Or are you really planning on DD'ing your car with a full cage and no interior and sit with in traffic and such? Really?

1. Trans (Obvious) 500-2000 $
2. Trans crossmember *not needed . Well it wasnt for me * same bracket
3. Shifter
4. Flywheel (make sure to order the right bolts!!!
5. Pressure Plate ( make sur to order those bolts too !!!)
6. Clutch
7. Clutch slave cylinder. ( should have the one which came with the tranny or order tye Hd csc I think its like 200-250$ ?
8. Clutch brake line
9. Clutch master cylinder ( you are stock with the oem stuff unlesz you relocate the abs module or delete it then you can get the wilwood one that I got..
10. Clutch pedal ( I recommand the aftermarket kit . I forgot who ot making that adjustement one... its lime 250 $
11. Driveshaft (vary from 50 to 500 $ depend where you get it. I kept mine for a future possible project (moving the engine tranny a few inch to the back )
12. You should look for an MT Ecu.. I heard on the 350z that this was not needed. But personnal its not a perfect way of doing it . The Mt should have a different way of ru ning the engine with an 6mt thaN the 7at. But they say it work .
13.you will have to look into the wiring diagram what you need to do to start the engine.
Personnaly I had a lot of work to do for my swap because I tried to have everything working as oem. My only issue was the rpm cluster . But for you its different than me because you are keeping the same engine. So I cant really help you with that .
14. You will want to have the plate that attach the rubber boot of the shifter to the body if you dont well you will have the hot air comming from under the car and some c02 from the exhaust ...
15. Ofcourse all of the interior trim will need to be purchased if you want to keep the oem interior look .. $$$$ or cheaper fro. The scrap yard ...
16. You should not need to get a different cluster. But will probably wont have the number I which gear you are in.. or at the worst you might have some litlle poping up... I cant help you much on this
I kept my 370z cluster with the 350z hr ecu ... I dont see why you should chamge yours...
