Hi I have three 300zx, a non turbo manual, sons, a twin turbo, sons, and mine a twin turbo automatic.

 

The plan is to remover the manual from the n/a engine and fit it to my twin turbo...

 

But I WONDER is the automatic engine from the twin turbo the same as the auto from the n/a....

 

My white one has a real problem getting into third, we changed the solenoid from a n/a engine auto box (I think) but it made matters worse...so suspect its something else, another sensor not working right or a completely buggerd box...boxes are relatively common so will change it I think for now until the manual box is stripped out...

 

But the big question are the twin turbo boxes all the same...

Welcome to the club paulob1 and hope you get some answers soon from the technical guro's on the fourm.

Im not really sure what your asking but with some fettling all boxes will fit all engines.

Welcome to the club mate - having not done any major fettling with the car myself, I do not know the answers to your questions.......

 

.....But someone more technical will no doubt advise you soon enough!!

NA manual will fit on the auto TT. if your using the NA flywheel and clutch straight on if using a TT flywheel and clutch you will need to grind an area out of the NA box to avoid it fouling on the TT flywheel. Remember to fit a Manual spigot bearing in the end of the crank and have fun removing the auto one.

Hello & welcome!

pretty much yeah, the box internals are the same. its just the driveplates, ie flex plate or flywheel and the bell housing that vary. also the speed sensors are different.

yes it was a bit confusing..

 

i want to fit another auto box to my white one as its not working right...so I will fit one next week, collecting a tt one on sunday from derby...

 

I then plan to swap the manual out of my sons car into this one once he has run it out of tax and MOT...june...just wonderd if it was an easy fit...sounds like it isnt too bad...

 

will take some photos this week...

just a curiosity are you from alton hants?

Welcome to the club mate :thumbup1:

yes I [plan to have at least three good cars before the end of the quarter...just collecting a box on sunday from markderby...this will go into my car and solves it third gear woes and then I will be on the road....want to have at least another two running, one is my sons he had a bad day with is today would not run right at all, we will sort monday...he has an na and its a nice drive, going to get myself one as a regular driver, better on fuel thant the twin turbo...want a really nice one though as modern as I can get...will be on the serach for one over the next few months...

got my gearbox, just taken the car for its MOT after it turns out the person who sold it to me had not MOT'd it...why do people tell such lies, got to decide if i plan to sue him or not, if it fails with big problems then its back to him...if not then the box gets changed and we are away...after it gets vic checked, that will take forever...oh joy...
