When I get another 350Z, would it be plausible to take a 370Z manual tranny (the synchro rev) and put it to a 350Z engine? Or would I have to get a 370Z engine?(or at least the 370Z ECU?)

Also I was thinking of putting a VR38DETT as a much later project.

LMAO! Don't you think there would be a bunch of threads about it already if it was so easy and simple to just swap the 370Z trans into a 350Z? Just get a 370Z next time.

And ROFL at the VR38DETT comment. It's not plausible to just plop that motor in the Z without the GT-R's AWD powertrain and dual clutch trans. Do you realize how much $$$ that would cost just for the parts?

Yeah... With the engine and labor I'm guessing the wrong side of 50,000....

the 350z transmission is more durable and stronger then the 370z transmission

The 370Z tranny with rev-match feature is not compatible with the Z33. The electronic architecture (including ECM, main harness and pathways) to support it will not exist in a 350Z and cost prohibitive to install. Same for a VQ37VHR or VR38DETT. They're all mirages to DIYers, and you'd likely need a full factory team to achieve any type of success with such a swap.
