Product Information

Description

  • This Z33 350z LS swap adapter kit will allow you to mate a Nissan 350Z (Z33) 6 speed transmission to an LS Series (i.e.; 4.8, 5.3, 5.7, 6.0, and 6.2 liter gen III or IV Vortec engines).
  • These transmissions were available from 2003-2006 in Nissan 350Zs.
  • The kit includes a custom steel flywheel, 3/8" steel powder coated adapter plate, pilot bushing adapter, hi-torque starter adapter (Use your existing hi-torque mini starter, or purchase separate.) and hardware.
  • The flywheel can be used with any OEM or aftermarket 350Z clutch assembly.
  • It is a direct bolt-on flywheel made for billet steel and weighs 30 lbs.

  • The starter adapter on the Z33 kits utilizes a Small Block Chevy (SBC) mini starter (GF-MS-SBC) available from G Force.
  • This kit requires no Z33 transmission modifications, with the exception of some heavy wall bellhousings which may require a slight clearance trim for the flywheel ring gear. The trim involves polishing away 0.06" over an area not much larger than a postage stamp.)

Some conversion kits use a significantly lighter aluminum flywheel. After a little research, you'll discover our 30 lb. steel wheel is the best option for 90% of all builds.

The 350z Z33 transmission internals are well designed for strength and smooth shifting.

This kit gives you the tools you need to connect an LS engine to a Nissan 350zx Z33 transmission, so you can reliably increase the power of your vehicle while utilizing a 6 speed manual transmission.

The cd009 transmission is a reliable 6 speed manual you can trust to swap behind your LS engine.

Ordered, Installed, Street Driven, Track Tested, and Satisfied

We went with this kit because we didn't have to cut the bell housing, the cost, and overall ease of installation. The kit was purchased a couple of years ago and we have finally been able to give it a good track day. We drove the car around town between 750-1000 miles. There was not an issue. At the beginning of this month we took it to the track, everything operated as it should have. We believe that this was a good purchase and worth the money. Easy solution to a simple problem, getting a good, reliable, inexpensive, transmission to a good, reliable, inexpensive, engine. Simple is better, in this case.

Great to hear you project came together and you were happy with the results from our LS to Z33 adapter kit. Thanks for the review and good luck on the track this season!

Great kit for the money

Love the kit. Bolts right up. No real need for fab work. Trying to find the right shims for the starter can be a pain. I like that you can use factory nissan clutches, makes the headache of finding a good clutch setup easier.

Major issue I have is that this kit REQUIRES buying a new starter (a chevy small block style universal starter. No big deal)... the main issue being that the adapter plate brings the starter so far towards the block that it's impossible to find a dipstick that fits in a truck block. I've spent easily $200 on 6 different types of dip sticks. F body, truck, flexible, shorty, none of the dipsticks work. It leaks oil constantly, and the only real solution is to put a plug in there and remove the starter every time you need to check the oil, or buy an entirely new oil pan that has the dipstick hole in the pan, and plug the block for good... wasted a TON of time and money with trial and error trying to correct a problem that honestly just seems like it wasn't thought out.

All the pieces fit well and bolted right together with no fuss. As the car is still under construction and won't actually be running for a while, I can't provide any further info at this point.
