Z31carowner Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 If I get an FS5R30A tranny from a Pathfinder instead of a 300ZX, will I have to change the gear ratio? I know they are different on the Z32's, but unknown on the Pathfinder. The only reason I care is this guy at a salvage yard is charging more for the one from the 300ZX. I assume because it's a sports car or more sought after. I'll take the cheaper Pathfinder one if it's workable that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 (edited) Pathfinder 2WD / 4WD: FS5R30A First 3.580 Second 2.077 Third 1.360 Fourth 1.000 Fifth 0.811 300ZX Z32: 1st 3.21, 2nd 1.93, 3rd 1.30, 4th 1.00, 5th 0.75 Ratios are different.

NewZed Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 (edited) Opportunity to keep the picture-editing skills in shape. 1995 Pathfinder ratios. Edit - of course the 4WD's transfer case would be an issue. Better check overall transmission length also, Nissan likes to make the truck transmissions shorter.

HowlerMonkey Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Biggest issue is that the pathfinder trans. Has the shifter closer to the bell housing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
