Can a shifter be transplanted to a 240SX?
Both the shifter mount and the shifter rod must be shortened as much as possible to fit the shifter in the right location on the 240SX. Until someone decides to cast or machine a bolt-in shifter mount for this transplant, cutting and welding of a factory bracket is required.
How much horsepower does a Nissan S14 have?
Jeren’s turbo KA24 in his Nissan S14 delivers over 500 horsepower (2016 Update: 700hp) to the wheels on pump gas. Considering that’s over three times the factory output, there is no doubt the factory transmission would be running on borrowed time.
Do you need a speedometer for a 350Z transmission?
The 350Z 6-speed transmission does not have an integral vehicle speed sensor. As a result, another speed sensor from the driveshaft will need to be fed to your speedometer. If you are lucky enough to have an ABS equipped 240SX, you can use a Dakota Digital converter box (about $85) to provide the proper speedometer calibration.
What kind of transmission does a JWT 240SX have?
The automatic transmission bellhousing offered a factory fit to the engine while JWT’s adapter plate mated this bellhousing to the 350Z transmission. JWT’s solution allowed the 350Z transmission to be bolted in place and that proved to be half the battle.
