Write Up for 6 speed Swap for 98 GTP

**connharrisfamily** · 12-24-2010

Don't tell me not to waste my money. I've seen this done a few times now. Just looking for the write up, money is not an issue. My dad is an awesome mechanic and I don't have to pay for labor(he owes me a lot in back child support lol..j/k..kinda) Swapping in a lot lower mileage engine at the same time any help is appreciated.

He's probably thinking that he shoulda just launched u on your moms back instead...

So if the 6 speed fits in there will the automatics just bolt in our 97-02?

**Bio248** · 12-25-2010

is this a serious thread? the 5 speed is what you want, not the 6 speed.

**blown gt** · 01-04-2011

**noreasonwhyy** · 01-04-2011

**matt5112** · 01-04-2011

Step one:

The six speed can't hold nearly as much power as the five....

**blueguy** · 01-04-2011

Step 2:

Hope you don't like having no drinks in your car...ever anymore.

kuntzie did it.
you need
"getrag 282 or 284
camaro fly wheel with longer bolts
pedal assembly
new clutch
best to get a z34 or gp donor car"
and the 284 is not serviceable anymore really.

**matt5112** · 01-05-2011

camaro flywheel needs to be machined.

**kuntzie** · 01-08-2011

the 6-speed is junk if your making any good power,

theres no such thing as a 3 hr install unless you have done the swap already and you want to were to take the trans out and put it back in, then maybe you can do in hrs if you have skills, but good luck, the realease bearing will take hours on its own if your not completely alert of how it works

5-speed ftw

**TEBO** · 01-24-2012

why is the F40 getting so much hate, i thought it couls support more power than the 282, pluse spec makes a flywheel and clutch for the f40 so..... idk

**MoarkatsINmuhtrailer** · 01-24-2012

And that's why the guy that did the 6speed in the white gp is selling it, it broke.. With nowhere near the power Jeff is making on his 5speed
