Bad SR transmission ? I hate making this thread. - Page 2 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

JuMPiiN · 04-02-2011, 08:47 PM

After driving it for a while ? What do you mean lol ? I havn't driven it lol. Also which is cheaper, rebuilding the transmission or buying another used transmission ? lol honestly!

I just dont understand how I can drive it for literally 17 miles it drove smooth and perfect then it just all of sudden does this i never even got out of 3rd gear !

i had a hard time finding a cheap sr tranny, so i just did the ka and changed the bell housing, a homey had one i gave him 50 bucks. honestly i cant feel the differance!

JuMPiiN · 04-03-2011, 05:02 PM

Idk anyone with a KA trans, I know where one is at in a junkyard. Not sure if I trust that tho

Om1kron · 04-03-2011, 05:24 PM

can't see pictures so I'm sitting here imagining them... stop speculating and drop it, you probably didn't tq down your clutch right, or your throw out bearing died, or the fluid leaked out and ran low.

sounds like your flywheel bolts werent torqued to the right specs and have backed out. I made the same mistake and my car was doing the samething.

astrowizdom · 04-04-2011, 07:49 PM

junkyard gave me a 30 day warranty!

Come on I put a tranny in in my parking lot with 2 Jacks stands and 2 Sissor Jacks (ignore the hydro jack it was garbage and only went half way)

use the sissor jacks up chassis up on jack stands
Drain fluid
unbolt and drop

JuMPiiN · 04-05-2011, 04:46 PM

Man i dont have a scissor jack lol, Im going to buy a 4 ton low profile from harbor freight tmo. Its 70 bucks. and ill never need a jack again.

JDMRIDDAZ · 04-05-2011, 05:13 PM

ok most likely its ur throw out bearing
not that it bad but the bearing face is wrong
i jst installed a xtd stage 3 w fly wheel and used their bearing thinking oh its new
even tho it didnt look the same as the oem replacement one i put on 6mo when i upgraded my sr
well i took it off found the retaing clip for the TOB was not right i put another one
pt it back together and still the same issue..
when i push in clutch the noise goes away..
the oem rplace ment is the way to go for sure
im gunna pull mines on sat
and im driving car 46mi every day
as long as ur for sure u torqued fly wheel bolts
for sure this is the issue...
dont even get a ka TOB either cause i ordered that one first and it doesnt have the same face as a sr oem so it will make noise.
especially on any strong clutch
u can only install a TOB one way if u put it on wrong it could make this noise but it would be different
also u can bench press the tranny in as long as u loosen the engine cross member
and jack up the harmonic balancer
and its not that hard i did it all by myself....

astrowizdom · 04-06-2011, 02:46 AM

found out it wasnt my tranny, throwout bearing, pilot bushing making the same noise as yours. You wont believe this, i have a act 6 puck clutch and guess what....... all the teeth where the input shaft go on to the disc ground off! check the pics! My teeth on the input shaft are perfect but the clutch splines are gone, this has to be a manufactures defect?

Yikes! that looks like a big bunch of ugly....

JuMPiiN · 04-06-2011, 01:15 PM

it will be off in like 45min or so, got a 3ton floor jack, bought a 455 mechanic tool set. Its on jack stands now, transmission is bolted to the transmission jack i got from harbor freight. Just got the last 2 bolts on the top of the trans to go and its off.

JuMPiiN · 04-06-2011, 01:17 PM

Oh yeah, and the TOB was a brand new OEM from Enjuku. Im thinking its either TOB or Pviot I can see part of the clutch through the slot where the slave is and it isnt even dirty it looks perfect. ( but i cant really see the inside of the clutch so idk lol )

JDMRIDDAZ · 04-07-2011, 08:35 PM

well double check everything bfore u put tranny bak

HAWAII · 04-07-2011, 10:40 PM

This is not tranny for sure, if you say the clutch came with the engine. It leaves the pilot bearing as the main suspect. was it replaced?
