Hence my incentive to make the S2000 tranny work...little lower first and one more up top.
As for weight, the T5 is about 105lbs and the T56, almost 130lbs. My S2000 tranny is 99lbs.
Starting to think I can make a custom clutch, with S2000 splines on a 940T clutch disc, use the 940 pressure plate and lh2.4 flywheel and just weld the flange of the redblock bell housing to the s2000 unit.
I hope it'll be that easy.
t5 is not 105lbs....actual shipping weight on one of the ones that I got was like 82 lbs
yeah I thought they were 75sh
T5 has aluminum case, way lighter than olde iron box m46.

Definitely post pics. If you find such a process to be just "that easy" we can all learn from you.
IMO it's only even possible with a fairly well equipped machine shop and a pretty hairy-chested welding machine.
yep, think that'll need to be reconfigured, or at least a different bearing in the crankshaft. the honda and volvo input shafts are a lil different.
this might be a good excuse to break out my new 200amp inverter AC/DC Tig
I would not attempt it with a 200amp machine. I have a Dynasty 200dx and it'd have a very hard time with it. Maybe with lots and lots of preheat, but really it's out of a 200amp machine's league.

bummer...I've never Tig'd anything over .060" in aluminum and that was 20 years ago
oxy/acet rig time?
put a 3.13 final drive in the car and you would be ok.. Cant say that that trans would be my first pick.. they arent known for being that strong but good luck.. If I was to do it I would look into the trans from a 350z G35 or frontier.. its a super strong trans and can be found for less than 600 bucks.. seen people put over 1100 whp threw them..

I dont think you know how much 1100 whp actually is.
I doubt anyone with a 1100 hp setup is running a factory nissan tranny. I dont think you know how much 1100 whp actually is.
