GP1138 Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 my bad 5t60e tranny....whats wrong with having a fookin l67 personally i think its better than 3.4 dohc, thast juss my opinion u dunt have to agree with it There is no 5T60E - he was giving you a hard time. The five speed manual transmission is called (with a 2.8 or 3.1) the Getrag 282, or (with a 3.4 DOHC) a Getrag 284. Quote
cryptnix Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 doing the swap will be fun ... there are plenty of people whom have done it over at l67swap.com. just relise tho ... the 5 speeds for our FWD won't hold up to constant abuse so ... if your just looking into it for just the enjoyment of having 5 speeds then ... ok but if you're doing it just cause it'll make your time better then why not seriously look into an automatic with a LSD setup ... not only that engine swaps are fun and easy if you're mechanically inclined, or at least haven't the fear of opening a can of whoopas... :-) buy a fiero homey ... trust me ... 1.9 rockers, 3.0 pulley, intercooler, true CAI and custom tuned computer will get you into low 12's ... it'll take a helluva lot more to get a z34 into that ... and by the time you hit that I doubt the 282 or 284 would even hold up to the weight of the car and the power that the motor is torque'n out.

Canada Posted August 26, 2004 Report Posted August 26, 2004 You should be able to make a 282 take the power......its not that weak of a transmission....there are rebuild kits out there.....and you can cyro-treat things very cheaply. Quote
