- In this video I put the brand-new 98+ Spec Z32 5-speed manual transmission in the Z, then take it for a long-awaited drive.

Man, really wish I didnt know the 98 trans existed...now I need one for my 94 TT
I remember when I first saw the new 300zx in the winter of 1989. Id say January or February of 89. The Nissan dealer had just gotten a delivery and they were still sitting on the truck. It was by far the best looking car up to that point in history.
Damn, now I want a short throw shifter in my E46 now lol
Great job! Glad you actually improved this Z32 and appreciate it’s heritage. Tavarish is also doing a 300zx project, but he doesn’t seem to care about the car’s heritage at all.
Thank you! Tavarish produces entertaining videos, no doubt about it. My style is different and I'm glad you enjoy it!
Old man @13:43 “What’s all that racket?”
...those turbo sounds on the test drive!
I think you meant "Pickle Fork" :D
In all seriousness, nice work. I just stumbled on your e30 vids the other day and really like what you do!
Great video as always. Your ASMR-style is in stark contrast to Tavarish's 'balls-out' way of doing restorations / modifications.
I love the sound of that Turbo!! Awesome video! Thank you.
Your work is just the way I would like my car work to go. (Not that's it's ever easy or as expected LOL) But you have everything set up before hand and try to be as prepared as possible before going in. It shows in the work and video too. Thanks for the great content I hope there's going to be more in the near future.
Thanks Greg! There's always something new around the corner, because everything I own is old and has issues :)
Nice job man! Looks (and sounds) amazing!
My favorite channel. Keep it up brother!
You got a new sub that is one clean z!
Loving this style of videos and your projects. Keep it up!
omg a transmission jack?! i wish i had one of these!!! always did this balancing on the drain plus using a normal floor jack... its a nightmare! but ive done well over 30 Z32's that way... sadly hahaha im a glutton for punishment for sure lol
Jealous. Great car and love the style of content you put out.
Thank you!
I have to know the music, it’s so awesome 😂
Check out the RUclips Audio Library! Some good stuff in there.
Color me impressed. Nice job
If you still monitor this video, would you please tell me if that 98 transmission failed? Mine did, with, with maybe 1250 miles on it. It's a very long story, my Z, but in short, it's a 95TT I bought in 96. Started a full restoration almost 5 years ago and was just now starting to think it was FINALLY finished that my transmission failed. As a "precautionary" step, about three years ago I bought a new 98 5 speed transmission, despite my old one being fine. Between then and now I've had to pull and rebuild the engine an additional two times. First time for a blown Tomei head gasket, after about 400 miles, (don't use those, only oem with copper spray) and the second time for being stupid and NOT blocking off the oil tree filter bypass check valves after shimming the pressure regulators in the tree to increase the oil pressure. That took out all my bearings after about 500 miles. And now, with only 350 additional miles, for a total around 1250 miles, the transmision started whining, badly. I never knew about this but apparently in "fixing" the sincros, which I never had a problem with, they F'd up something even worse. Would you by chance know anyone, or place that actually knows how to fixes these transmissions? This is my Z if you'd like to see it. ruclips.net/video/MjkYMPhdkcA/видео.html
I’m super excited to see how this Z turns out. Also do you ever miss your E30?
I miss it for sure. Wish I had room to keep them all.
Practical Enthusiast I bet I really enjoyed the build as I was watching when I just bought mine
Like the music!
Amazingly informative video! I’m curious to know if you’re running BOV’s or just open recirculation valves? If it’s the former, do you find that there are any drivability issues with them at all?
Great content!
Thanks Steve. They're BOVs (HKS SSQV) and they were on the car when I bought it, so I can't comment on whether they affect drivability much compared to recirc valves. I haven't noticed any issues arising from them. I just loved the way they sounded so I kept them in place!
@@PracticalEnthusiast Thank you! Are they where the recirculation valves are or are they where the intake pipes are? I have some very old school HKS Super BOV’s (early 90’s JDM only) that I’ve been dying to install, but my tuner says that doing so will cause me to have to rest my foot on the throttle slightly at idle to avoid stalling. I’m tempted to try installing them to see what they’re like and then returning back to stock if I dislike them, but only if they’re installed in the area where you have them, as they seem to work well for your setup!
Found your vid and sub'd. Question: did you notice more noise from the tranny, almost like it is a sequential trans? I get a lot more gear noise now. Not scary noise, but gear noise
Congratulation! What next? What about E30, it's has been sold or still not?
The E30 has been sold. Not sure what's next!
Seinfeld of auto.diy 👌
I have a 93 NA 2+2, the transmission thankfully doesn’t grind and shifts pretty good with redline in it. My question is...how is 1st gear coming to a stop? Like...say you wanna roll through a stop sign but at a few mph, too slow for 2nd. Mine gives me resistance until I almost stop, it would not engage while rolling (unless I double clutch or really force it in).
Just wondering if the brand new transmission is like that too...I feel it's a characteristic of the Z32 5spd.
Awesome job bro! Did you have to adjust your clutch pedal after??
I did adjust the pedal screw adjuster a little bit.
I was just wondering, is the Nissan turning only one rear wheel, or is it Posi-traction?(both wheels turning) I love how you find all of those older autos that would be destroyed by those MN winters... Semper Fidelis
So, I have to ask. Where did you get the finesse to do this kind of interior disassembly? Most people who do it hack the hell out if it, and you do not. I have to assume this is something learned?
The factory service manual is hugely helpful. I get one for every car I own. It usually tells you where all the hidden screws and clips are, which prevents potential hacking.
Where do you buy a new transmission these days and what do they cost?
I miss my 94 ZXTT
Oh crap. I didn't know about the 98 transmission. 2 yrs ago I spent 2k on rebuild of a 93 automatic. . Know I'm pissed
Great Video. Do you have aftermarket BOV's on this?
I have same jacket as you lol
Seriously? The purple one?
Can you change the muffles back to original the those look a bit boy racer etc
Nobody asked you.
How is the new transmission holding up? Any whine from the gearbox?
Nice vid, helpful. What are you doing with the OEM shifter? If you want to sell it contact me.
how can i buy part from you please
You were able to re-use your speed sensor from your old trans?!? I had heard you had to use a new speed sensor which read a different speed than the old ones.
I reused the old speed sensor without any problems. I haven't heard about that issue before.
@@PracticalEnthusiast Yeah, you're right. It's plug and play with a TT car. My issue is I want to use an NA speedometer sensor with the TT transmission. Z1 says it can be done with some minor modifications. I'm trying to figure out what exactly that means.
What year 350z transmission fit to 1996 300zx twin turbo please
No clue on that one, sorry.
did transmission come filled with fluid? are you changing the fluid after break in time? mt90?
Yep, it came prefilled with fluid. I will change out for MT90 after 1000 miles. I'm not doing that at the direction of Nissan or anything. It just seems right to do it after a break-in period.
@@PracticalEnthusiast totally what I would do :)
Nice job? Are you going to replace that ugly tweed dash with suede? What about the seats are you going to get them recovered in leather or go aftermarket?
Ugly tweed?? You crazy!
@@PracticalEnthusiast Lol suede looks much better.
Looks like burbur carpet.
Where did you source a 98 spec transmission. Also where do you get a new shift knob with a 6 speed pattern. Are the gear ratios tighter for better acceleration?
I got the transmission from Z1 Motorsports. That's a 5 speed shift knob. The 98+spec transmission is still a 5 speed with the same gear ratios as before.
I want you to do the same to mine,
