help im a 300zx virgin with problems
it will be the speed sensor on the box get under the car and look on the side of the gearbox the drivers side i think. the sensor is like a little cylinder about 30mm in diameter with a black plastic plug in the end. this plug comes loose and slides out causing the problems you describe. tap it back in andtap over the edge of the casing a little to stop it coming out. should fix it

Bottom end help and advise.:helpsmilie:
you will find its an almost impossibe job , the cross member hass to be dropped to remove the sump and as the engine mounts onto it you will have to support the engine which means taking out coilpacks etc and hoses. the gearbox will also have to come off obviously along with starter etc and exhaust. i would say it would actually be quicker to take the engine out. my main advice would be that if you had a big end failure then there will lots of bits in the engine so it will need to be really clean to prevent this happening again. ie put through an engine wash. i had a similar issue with an s14 i owned. the previous owner had done as you planned but it was not long untill the problem re occured. only my 2 pence worth though. More than willing to give advice though

EX MR2 turbo owner now looking to get into a 300ZX TT
in my opinion i would buy the best car you can bodywork wise and worry about the box later. i assume you are a mechanic so a box change should be no trouble. mechanics are easy to sort compared with the time or cost of sorting out a rusty/bent shell.
