Transmission compatability question

Recommended Posts

I have a 1995 with a 5 sp manual tranny. The tranny is very sloppy fore and aft. (lash) Going from on to off throttle in traffic gives me the heebs ! It is going to grenade some day soon.

Can a manual tranny from a 1998 bolt in to my 1995? Because I have a buddy who will sell me his cheap.

If there is someone out there with some knowledge on this topic that would be lovely !

Your is an FS5R30A trans and according to drivetrain.com, can be found in the following vehicles:

 

300ZX Turbo 1987-89

 

300ZX All Engines 1990-96

 

Pathfinder 2WD with 6 Cylinder Engine 1989-86

 

Pathfinder 4X4 with 6 Cylinder Engine 1987-96

 

Pickup 2WD with 6 Cylinder Engine 1986-96

 

Pickup 4X4 with 6 Cylinder Engine 1986-96

 

I got mine a few years ago from a Japanese engine and trans importer who installed it for about $550.00.

If your close to WI I have one in my spare 95 (new main bearings, clutch, and pressure plate)

(frame broke from rust after having the 5sp rebuilt and I bought a 95 auto)

I'd like to know why not?

If a 98 3.3L will go into a 95 & older 3.0L; the bell should bolt up so what won't... Is the hump on the wd21 not big enough for the r50 tranny? Shifter in a differant spot? x-fer-case on the wrong side? spline counts? tell me if you know.
