3 years ago

Another several days working on this car. The transmission is now apart completely and there still appears to be NOTHING wrong. Spoiler alert I have been driving this car as I am publishing this video in September 2021, when I did the work in February of 2021.

The main work accomplished today is removing all of the gears and bearings from the main shaft and counter shaft of this 280zx 5-spd transmission.
