G37X AT to MT

How hard would it be to take a G37X AT and put a manual transmission in it?

Haha I wouldn't say that's entirely accurate as I've never seen what a G37x transmission looks like, but thanks for the reference

The MT transmission would not bolt up directly to an AWD transfer case



Meaning you'd have to keep the AT bell housing, but swap in MT internals which I'm not sure would work/fit.

OR

You could keep the MT with its bell housing, and try and hookup the transfer case to it somehow. There would be a lot of fabrication involved.

A 350Z was converted to an AWD but they had to go with an A/T, which could mean it was near impossible to do it with an M/T.


Without putting both transmissions side by side it won't be easy to tell to be honest.

I'm sure at the time of purchase having an AWD had a higher priority. I don't know where Downey Ca is to judge though.

@OP, you can always do an RB26 engine & tranny swap and call it a day haha
