Facts
I remember being this 12 year old kid watching Robbie put wish mods on jasmine and the BRZ and now im 16 with an almost fully rebuilt e46.
Fax, I started watching around that time too and now my car is manual swapped, engine rebuilt, and it’s on bags. But back then I was like “this wish car is cool af” and honestly those videos helped me understand that you just gotta have fun and doing those small cheap things helps you learn about the real deal and that you don’t even actually have to buy expensive things, sometimes the cheaper parts actually work really well
robbie inspired me to build my eg hatch
That's awesome!
@@thatboywiththefez553 yea that was the biggest thing he taught me it’s possible
It was that long ago already 😮
You should be able to wire the clutch pedal to the neutral safety switch relay (from the auto trans) if you do that the manual Ecu should work without needing the whole harness
너도 클러치냐
"My MUFFLER juice" - what are these dad jokes😑
I put EVERYTHING on hold to watch this. FINALLY MANUAL 😄
More Z content pls!!
always gotta respect ppl who work on their zs by themselves because the way nissan was mounting stuff in the 90s was PAINFUL
Fucking R34 transmission top bolts... grrrrrr
Let’s hope you replaced the Pilot bushing. Auto transmission bushings are way different than Manual on these z32. Should’ve also gotten the Heavy Duty Clutch Fork with Chromoly pivot ball. Just a fellow z32 owner giving you a heads up from experience 🤗 Also, WiringSpecialties have the MT harness too
Robbie I remember watching you back about 4 years ago and I’m super hyped to see you at driven calgary
You don't need to worry about the manual harness as long as you've got the manual ecu, Nissan ran them as 2 separate ecosystems (ecu and tcu) so if you run the manual ecu it has no idea that an auto box ever existed, the engine loom itself is the same, just unplug the auto ecu and In the engine bay there will be a plug with 2 wires that need to be shorted as its the park/neutral starter inhibit, all 90s nissans were wired pretty much the same.
good to know!
I think you’d need the harness for the clutch safety and all that jazz
@@XenoGeneric sorry yea forgot about US market and clutch switches being a requirement, it's easy enough to overcome though by simply leaving the auto loom in place, the clutch inhibit switch doesn't feed into the ecu on 90s nissans, it's part of the body loom that doesn't exist on an auto
@@Stalk3rNZ Yeah I’d just say screw it and leave it out, I’m sure robbie’s smart enough to not start it in gear or anything
Not gonna lie but the shop vibes have seemed so much cooler and relaxed with 2 people again🔥
it's funny cause most of the kids saying "ew it's auto" have probably never even driven stick before lmfao
I don't mind it being an auto unless it doesn't want to shift and stays on the red line for 3 sec
And then there’s people like me who have never even driven an automatic. I’m not hating on automatic drivers, but I just refuse to do that to myself.
@@owngamesgamer4030 or when you are trying to accelerate and it won't downshift. Not fun when you're trying to merge onto the highway
@@elserpiente so quirky try the 8zf u wont ever go back to old manuals
I've driven both kinds of transmissions and for daily driving automatic is easier than a manual transmission. It also makes your driving more relaxed, manual transmissions have their place but automatic transmissions are perfectly usable. For context I live in Europe where more than 50% of cars on the road have a manual transmission and my car is an EV...
Shoutout to spec, for always coming in “clutch”
Thank you finally another 300 vid I was getting tired of drifting 😂❤️
MATE THAT ACCENT IS BUSSIN' SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESH
Why don't you drain transmissions before pulling them ? Like every damn time you don't do it and fuck everything up
i read this comment before seeing the mess he made and when i saw it i was like holy shit he was right lmfao
You think he would have learned after the first time 😂
Yupppppppp what we’ve been waiting forrr!!!😩🥵
Saw a 300gt today at work, peeked in the window and saw that it was auto then proceeded to throw up a bit in my mouth. Glad to see there’s one less jdm legend with an auto transmission
Been waiting for this moment 🥵
yess!!! just what i wanted to see
Cross threads n red loctite is the best thread always🤷😂
Yesss Robbie your amazing ❤️
great video bro!🔥
Robbie you are the best!!!!
Yess finally
I'm hyped to see you at Driven Calgary!
AYEEEEEE I LOVE YOU ROBBIEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Fun video...the z is my favorite of all ur cars👌🏾
yoooooooooo lets go 🤟🏼
I need to replace the clutch pedal on my 92 300zx na...so that is great you will be doing that. Please get some good vid of that..thank you.
U should keep a couple of bags of cat litter laying around u can throw that on oil leaks or any leaks and just crush it and u can sweep it up
“cross threads are better then no threads” had me dead😂😂
"Not my muffler juice!" I'm weak😂😂😂
Wild for wearing that white tee in the shop. Also amazed it wasn’t more trashed.
Love spec clutch best upgrade you can do
You should really invest in some floor dry. Its cheap,works great, and saves my shop from massive messes every day
I love the bell☺️
I always find myself looking at the time when close out of the video happens to see if there’s any extra time left haha cross threads are better than no threads 😂 Keep up the great work guys!
Back again lol watching after work
U guys are my favorite couple 😆
U need a manual brake pedal, yes its it different and makes things easier.. otherwise the clutch pedal and the big wide auto brake pedal will be way to close 2 each other.. cheap people just cut it but doesn't look good.
Just get a used 1 bolts right on and looks way better.
Good luck.
Lemme just say… LONG WHEELBASE GANG BABYYYYYY!!! More seats = more fun! Loving the Z32 content brotha!
Super lit
Does this mean future z track days. I miss my old Z’s burnout champs…. Had a 89 zx and a 04 350 convertible. Best drift cars ever made in my opinion 👍🏻
YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!
LETS GOOOOOO
You should make a damn out of kitty litter, that will absorb all the fluids as they spill
Notifican gang 🥳
"Cross threads are better than no threads"😂
Gotta start doing deletes, to make it easy on yourself. I own a z32na-tt an i really love the car, because its unique.
Z committed
The radiator doesn’t have to be looped. Once all the fluid is drained on the floor then you can keep ports fully open because the trans fluid portion is completely independent on the inside. Had my truck like that since 93
93 days ago that is
Wiring specialties has the wiring harness, got mine from them
Noti gang 😼
The giant donut is just a centrifugal clutch that moves the car or transmission under fluid pressure once momentum and inertia increases
sooo... magic.
Nah its just magic
Works by using fluid coupling
Yesssss
Robbie man. You need to invest in a few bags of speedy dry. Haha
When are u going to put a catch can on it ???
Robbie, pull the starter next time and unbolt the torque converter (donut) through the starter hole next time. To get to all the bolts just turn the engine over by the crank or spin the flywheel with a pry bar on the teeth. It won’t make a mess out of the front of the transmission anymore if you have to do any swaps ever again! And pull the pan and drain it next time lol!😆😂 love the videos man! Just a tip from one young mechanic to another!!
Exact same internals regardless if it’s a tt or na transmission. Only difference is the ID of the bell housing & the starter engagement on a TT.
Not my muffler juice 🤣🤣🤣🤣
yesssir
damn. Robbie started with a blue BRZ and a boatload of wish mods. Now we’re here.
Also look into getting a motorcycle floor Jack for dropping the trans way better than using regular floor Jack
Lets goooo
I’d love to see Robbie and @itsjusta6 do a collab. I feel like Robbie’s style and Gavin’s love for speed would make an absolutely wild build come to life.
Get the noob outta here! 😂 dope progress
Robbie, I, and I'm sure all of us absolutely LOVE videos of you working on your car, but could we possibly get videos of you DRIVING your cars? I miss seeing Jasmine, and I wanna see the new K-swap ripppin around.
MEGA F, for that muffler, if you loose the liquid inside it means you need to replace the muffler bearings. Very expensive stuff
This is just making me dread doing it myself 😭😭
It’s crazy how we z brothers now my favorite RUclipsr got the same car as me hopefully we meet stay committed guys 👍🙏💯👌🏽💪🏽
Fyi, looks like you left the Auto Transmission bushing in on the crank shaft. You needed to remove it and them put in the manual transmission pilot bushing in, then your clutch alignment tool would have worked better.
Just some advice if there's a next time, disconnect the torque converter (donut, lol) from the flywheel before you drop it. You will not have to work around it when dropping it. Also, they will come out together so all of the fluid will not pour out of the converter. Unless you have a transmission jack, there is almost no way of not making a mess. You're still learning though, keep up the good work.
yes
Draining it should’ve been one of the first things you did lol
Would love a q&a video about the swap, I'm manual swapping my z an have nearly a strand of an idea on what to do 😂
Camera quality always crisp. what camera are you using?
Nice
Your the only person that I know that wear white when working on a car
spec really comming in clutch huh ?
Classic 😂
I've done 3 at->manual swaps on Z32. pretty easy.
Notificationsssss
Wassup yall! How's the day been?
🅰️1️⃣
Cross thread is natures locktite aswell Robbie lol
How tf did you find a z32 manual trans. I'm in Sask and I've been looking for months
@4:45... the song of my people
New drift car 🧐
❤️
On your next transmission, do yourselves a favor and leave the torque converter with the transmission. You'll thank me later.
did you keep that AT pilot bushing in when installing? i didn't see it removed before you threw on the clutch.
i would imagine that would keep you from getting the trans in, besides the alignment tool being misaligned
Make Sure you change the timing belt on the car, my brother had a 1990 Nissan 300zx Just like yours and the timing belt went and took the motor with it.
robbie i hope you see this. back when you were working on jasmine when she was still red, and you and videos of you and the boys just boosting around town, it was so entertaining. what happened to all of that?
lets fucking goooooooooooo
Early gang
Always use OEM throwout bearing because even it is a brand name clutch it is not as good as oem.
You could sell the muffler juice as Z bathwather lol.
Thas what I told myself when I ran to my truck after chap stick when I was 21, it'll werk as lube, she didn't care, 😆 ggz
9:09 what’s with the infinity badge in the window?
You should change the rear main seal before you put the clutch in.
Robbie. When it comes time to tune this thing, get ahold of tri county auto in new york. You will not regret it. Even if you dont go there, mike'll tell you what exactly you need to make some reliable big power with this girl.
Theyve been working on these vgs for YEARS and if im being real theyre probably the best in the buisness for these period in north america.
Wy didn't you removed the transmission pan
