Is there a DSG (Direct Shift Gearbox) that can bolt up to my redtop SR20DET? I have looked around and couldn't really find anything.

You didn't look very hard.
If you're talking about a sequential trans, holinger and hks both make bolt on versions but I hope you have $20k+ lying around.

I seen those, I was referring more to automatic trani's like the one in the EVO, or some Audi's that have the clutch based systems that will bolt up to the SR20DET. So basically and auto trani swap that I can pull out of a bone yard. I screwed my knee up in Afghanistan a couple of years back and its becoming harder to use the clutch on my Silivia, so auto swap is something Im looking into.

in transverse I guess I could ask how solid are the normal Automatics in the 240sx... But that is a question for another thread, with research needing to be done first.

DSG and autos are different things.

A DSG trans still uses clutches, not a torque converter like an auto.

But it still doesn't use a clutch... so is there some that will bolt up to sr20det or ka24

He's talking about an actual clutch and you're talking about the pedal. Sequential transmission is pretty much your only option. Only Nissan car that has DSG are the new GTRs.

do some research and call some transmission shops about beefing up a stock auto. I bet someone could make it handle your sr unless you're pushing 500rwhp or something. It's not like autos for these cars are expensive. As long as you don't blow up more than one a year, it would be kind of like changing your clutch once a year. ;)
