That's a very expensive gearbox if you're gonna go for a conversion. Most ppl would get their hands on an S13 or S14 5-speed gearbox for their conversion, as it is much stronger than the stock 6-speed. The price of the conversion depends also on what kind of clutch u use. I'd sell the auto and get a manual S15 if I were you :)

nismo gears are 4000aud + shipping, personally i think its worth it or other choice is the HPI complete gearbox :D it has Nismo gear ratios and handle more torque :thumbs:

How much are the HPI gearboxes for s15's? I just find the stock ones rubbish :p they just sound like they'are about to fly apart.

Go a Power FC for a manual S15 at the same time to avoid issues with gearchanges also. :)

I wish it was that easy!!!

All our cars are imports over here and therefore hard to find and even harder in a breakers yard!!

Hmmmm, my sister lives over in Oz. Wonder if she would wrap one up and stick it in the post!


I wouldn't mind getting all the bits imported if it was at the right price.

Anyone know if companies import engines and stuff to the UK?
