Clutch options:
As of right now, we have twin rallye disc (7.25' or 8.5') QuarterMaster clutches currently available. The single disc options are 'off the shelf' Nissan 300ZX turbo clutches (90-96), however they will require our proprietary flywheel. In either case, you will need the Quarter Master QMI internal slave cylinder/hydraulic throw out release bearing.
With this adapter, you will use an internal hydraulic throw out bearing/slave cylinder (optionally included with the kit, as well as hardware) with the factory automatic A340E/A341E 2JZ bellhousing.
In most cases, you will most likely not have to do any clearancing of the chassis, as you will need to cut off the Nissan bell housing (which is non-removeable/non-serviceable) and replace it with the auto JZ J3 bell.
Expect a few of our SupraStore project cars to be equipped with these as well!
This will fit all versions of this transmission (CD001, CD003, CD005, CD008, CD009, JK41A, JK41B, JK40C, 1EA0A, 1EA0B), both 350Z and 370Z. Regardless of if yours has an internal or external slave cylinder setup (Nissan swapped to an internal later on), you will use our kit parts to make it easy and simple. This transmission has been proven to handle over 1000rwhp without opening it up!
We have included in-progress pictures of the transmission kit. Please note that the transmission itself is not included.
We have at least one customer with a 7MGTE that has successfully installed this plate and 6 speed to his engine, however we do not currently have any plans to offer any further 7M specific parts for the conversion. The good news is we have a finished flywheel design available (scroll down) to fulfill 7M owner needs!
We can also supply a twin disc QuarterMaster clutch setup that include a button flywheel, which will need to be drilled for the 7M crank's bolt pattern.
Included with purchase on this listing:
☼ Adapter plate with hardware to install
☼ Thin aluminum spacer shim
☼ Quill tube for mounting the hydraulic throw out bearing
☼ Pilot bushing adapter, with bushing installed
☼ Throw out bearing (optionally)
Q: What will I need to complete the swap?
A: You will need
☼ This adapter plate
☼ Nissan 6 speed manual from any (preferably 2006+) 350Z, 370Z, G35, or G37
- If you are going to use a single disc clutch, you will need any Z32 turbo off the shelf (that we can provide and stock). You will also need our custom flywheel. The W55, W58, R154, V160, etc. flywheels do NOT fit.
- If your application will need a twin disc clutch, you will not use our custom flywheel. We offer the Quarter Master solutions, which use a button flywheel and require the factory auto flex plate to use as a ring gear to engage the starter.
You will also need the following chassis specific parts:
☼ Custom shifter (that we are working on for the IS, SC, MkIV, and MkIII chassis')
☼ Driveshaft
☼ Crossmember/transmission mount and bracket
-If you have an auto trans you're replacing, you will also need the clutch pedal, master cylinder, and clutch lines.
We now also offer a solid steel clutch alignment tool as an alternative to a throwaway plastic one. This alignment tool is definitely recommended for multi disc clutch setups, as it makes installation of the transmission far easier. The steel version also resists the clutch disc from eating the splines, as we often see on the plastic versions.
The 'SupraStore recommended' clutch is the FX400 6 puck sprung disc, which has stock feel and is capable of holding 500+ HP!.
There's also the option for an extra friction surface ring for the flywheel. One is already included with flywheel purchase. With aluminum flywheels, they do not get turned/machined down like iron/chromoly ones. Instead, the surface is infinitely replaceable, and comes with new hardware as well!
We typically recommend using a 3/4' bore master cylinder with this kit. Some of our customers have had success using a stock replacement master cylinder, but for best results (and what it is designed for), the 3/4' is the way to go. We offer a Tilton master cylinder kit, which should bolt on to popular chassis swaps like the MkIV Supra, SC300/SC400, or IS300.
Here's a video of Sound Performance running a 9 second 1/4 mile on this transmission. They later turned up the boost to 1248rwhp without breaking the transmission!
Why choose a CD009 transmission
Sometimes the choice of transmission used in an engine swap isn’t given the consideration it deserves. Astrosage kundli software, free download for mac. However, your satisfaction with the results hinges on the transmission you choose. The success of your LS conversion depends on it. That is why a CD009 is worth considering.
Commonly, a T-56 transmission is the first choice for a high horsepower LS swap. It has a good reputation for performance and reliability. Still, it can be expensive. The average cost of a new LS T-56 is $2,500. Because they are increasingly scarce, rising prices for the T-56 and other 6-speed transmissions leave enthusiasts searching for less costly options. The CD009 is an excellent possibility.
CD009 the best budget-conscious transmission
The CD009 is an affordable 6-speed option that works. Because these transmissions are plentiful, they are less expensive than the more well-known alternatives. Costing about $1,700 brand new, the Nissan CD009 is found in the ’05-’06 350z and g35. Used, it sells for around half that price, which makes it the perfect solution for those on a budget. A quick search reveals there are many sites where you can find a CD009 transmission for sale.
Initially intended for a select group of cars, the CD009 transmission found a growing community of fans among car enthusiasts. Its popularity created enough demand that the automotive aftermarket took notice. Subsequently, third-party manufacturers designed quite a few parts to simplify the installation of the CD009.

Additionally, the market also has a wide variety of adapter plates available for many makes, including Toyota, Honda, Ford, and others. It is very likely an adapter plate exists to make this transmission work for you.
Will it hold power?
Cd009 Transmission Rebuild Kit
The fundamental question is, will it hold the power of my motor swap? The CD009 is popular in the swapping community because it consistently holds high horsepower. Unofficially, this transmission has more than enough strength for the average motor swap. Tested and proven reliable in cars with over 1000 whp, it goes far beyond most drivers’ requirements. Therefore, those looking for an alternative 6-speed for their LS swap should look no further.
It is important to note that this transmission is not confused with the earlier generation found in the 2003-2004 350z. Previous versions were known to grind between gears. However, in mid-year 2004, Nissan updated the transmission. The upgrade to stronger triple cone synchronizers in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gears eliminated that problem. Now, even when compared to the T-56 Magnum, the CD009 is an incredible transmission for the price.
What about gearing?
Gearing plays an essential role in how your vehicle performs. Although long gear ratios accelerate more slowly, they provide less shifting time and higher top-end speeds. Conversely, shorter gear ratios require that you shift more often but help you accelerate faster. When considering the information on the CD009 Gear Ratio table below, remember that the lower the number, the longer the gear ratio—translation: slow acceleration but better fuel economy.
When comparing a CD009 to a T-56, the results show much longer gears for the T-56. Therefore, for acceleration and performance both on and off the track, the better choice is the Nissan CD009. The exception is drag racing, where longer gear ratios reduce shifting time. The T-56 performs better in that situation.
CD009 Gear Ratio Comparison
| Gear | T-56 | CD009 |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | 2.66 | 3.78 |
| 2nd | 1.78 | 2.32 |
| 3rd | 1.30 | 1.62 |
| 4th | 1.00 | 1.27 |
| 5th | 0.74 | 1.00 |
| 6th | 0.50 | 0.79 |
