I put this into my 260Z 2+2 years ago when the original gearbox gave trouble (it was a straight fit, but needs some care in choosing the right clutch). 

It served me well, it even took me across the nullarbor. But on the way back it started feeling and sounding funny (fortunately it happened in Esperence). A mechanic there said the thread on the main shaft had worn so that when he tightened the main shaft nut, it would pop a thread, so he put a spacer in front of the main shaft nut and it was able to tighten onto some fresh thread. It got me back across the nullarbor, but I pulled it out when I got back and I don't trust it.

I kept it to show the little fella when he got older how gearboxes work, but I need the space.

You can have it for free if you are willing to come and pick it up from Heidelberg West, Victoria.

 

UPDATE:

Sorry to anyone who is interested, but the gearbox has found a new home.
