260DET Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 (edited) Does anyone know of an adapter available for this conversion? A six speed like the heavy TR6060 is not required, what would be ideal is a five speed with say a .85 fifth gear. Keeping the $ in mind, a T5 derivative or even a Z32 five speed should suit but how to fit and have the right clutch etc is the problem. EDIT; the local advice is that a T5 won't handle say 400whp and that a TKO600 would be a better more durable choice.

74_5.0L_Z Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 (edited) There are two companies in the US that make upgrade kits for the T5. The two companies (Astro Performance and G-Force) advertise 500+ hp capability for their products. I know of several people running the G-Force in the American Iron racing series with success. I personally have an upgraded T5 from G-Force, but I only use my car for autocross. I am making 400hp/ 400 ft-lbs of torque at the wheels. Additionally, G-Force has a variety of gear choices and the choice of dog-ring or synchomesh. Edited April 7, 2014 by 74_5.0L_Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
