  • Need help choosing a 71c rebuild kit

    There are so many rebuild kits for the 71c tranny found in all n/a Zs. Ebay alone is crazy. I've been looking at this one for some time but other rebuild kits on ebay seem to have more or less in what they have to offer. I just want the right one. I'd also like to know where I can either buy the tranny mount I will need(old one is shot) or buy a aftermarket tranny mount with polyurethane instead.

    If anyone has any advise before I go through the process of dropping the tranny that would be... that would be just great. :super

Hes always leaking out in my cylinders, making a mess on the cars behind me with all that coolant. So I discipline it with 6,600rpm burnouts.

    The ad says "300ZX FS5W71C 6 Cylinder 3.0L 1987-89". Not sure if the 84-86 is different.

        So...buy this one? I've seen other rebuild kits include stuff like o-rings and gaskets and such...but for different years.
