An S15 with a 6 speed will work, right?

[Blakt Out]

Hey everyone,

 

I haven't really posted on here before. However, I've been mining your posts for a few months as I prepare my project. My '72 240Z has been in the resto shop for about 4 months now. It's on a rotisserie and is just about ready to shoot with the factory lime paint. I've been trying to decide between the SR20 and the RB26. After talking with Adrian at Vildini (who is AWESOME) today, I decided on the SR20. The weight is such a big deal to me, as I'll track the car on road courses. So I want to have around 360-380rwhp. No more. That's a good combo of power and traction. I found an S15 with a 6 speed out of a Silvia. I'm not really finding any of you talking about the S15 OR the 6 speed. I find a bunch about S13s and 14s with 5 speeds. Will this work as well? Does the 6 speed fit in the tunnel all the same? Does the S15 set in just like the others? Thanks for all the help. I think it's cool to have a 6 speed, and I think an S15 would be cool too.

 

Thanks for all the help. I think you'll start seeing a lot of my posts on here before long. But I'll throw some pics in here because I know how much I enjoy all of yours.

 

Take care, brothers!

Here's a pic of the car as I bought it back in the spring.

 

 

Here's me dropping it off at Roman Road Restoration Center in North Wilkesboro, NC.

 

 

Then, it immediately went to this point...

 

 

 

And this is where it is today...

 

 

So I hope I didn't bore you with all that. Rock on. Glad to be here in the community (again). This is my 14th Z. I've done the V8 and felt like I raped the car (no flaming... my opinion). I'm really excited about this one being a keeper.
