Nissan 300ZX Five Speed
Created on 2007-01-01 06:41:38
Just a note to say that the transmission turned out so much better than I expected. The car is just wonderful to drive as I can now keep up with traffic, and now I look forward to doing some trips this summer. Ocean City is the place to be with an MG cruising up Coastal Highway. I'm not sure if anyone else reads these entries, but if you haven't driven an MG with an overdrive or a five speed, you just don't know what your missing. The car is totally different. Your cruising at 65 mph and the engine is just turning 2,800 rpms. You can have a nice conversation, and the engine is not tached up and ready to jump out of the car. I will be logging some miles now going to some places I've been wanting to see.

Vic- I am just salivating at trying this swap. Any advice, input, or reference is hugely appreciated. Vic
