Hey, this is my first post and I was wondering if anyone has done this. I drive a 1981 280zx Turbo and like many people know it has an automatic tranny. I know Nissan was worried so they never put the same trannies from the N/A car into the turbo car, but an opportunity has come up where I can get the entire parts car. So my main question is that, will it work properly and if its worth it or should I just wait till a 280zxt manual tranny becomes available?
