    Automatic Bellhousing

    Heya all, getting another Z soon that is automatic and I want to know if the bellhousing for the automatic is the same as the 5-speed? Basiclaly I want to know if my auto bellhousing can bolt up to my Z32 transmission like the other 5-speed Z31 transmissions do?

    The Z31, Pathy, Nissan, 30A bolts up to your Z32 tranny. Auto bellhousing is not going to work. Here's a question for you. Where would you put the slave cylinder, clutch fork, pivot ball etc. Do tell.

    enjoy building it yourself.
    if it fails, fuck it.
    at least you gave it a whirl.

    That's why I asked. I know the VG33 and VG30 are the same motors with the same pre-drilled holes, just the accessories are in different places, etc. That's why I was asking. And I also thought that the Z32 wasn't a direct bolt up, due to the starter motor; that you needed to mount the back end of the transmission to a Z31 bellhousing.
