Engine Installation Day and This Happens.... 2JZ 300ZX Build Part 22 

Your shifter plate may not be aligned properly. Try pushing down when shifting to 5th gear if it works then your shifter plate definitely needs to be aligned. This is a common issue when changing your shifter. Also you should realign anyways just Incase if not you could slowly grind your gears out in the future. And we all know we don’t want anymore transmission issues!!!! Like this so Kalvin can see

yay :)

Hardest working man I know! Kalvin this build is pretty epic and I'm appreciating all the content bro! I cant wait for the finished product.

This dude kills me me with his Australian voice

Love jazz music while wrenching. It keep me relax when things don't go as planned.. lol

My car is the same, i have a R32 RB25det with a r33 big box and mine goes all gears apart from from 5th but I don’t have my clutch bled up , it is a freshly rebuilt gear box with brand new gears , synchro and selectors , from one of the pro D1NZ drivers here in New Zealand , so I don’t think it’s a problem , well I hope not keep us updated ✊🏽

Hey you can use the 2JZ-GE hard coolant line. It’ll leave a clean look and eliminate the hard line going behind the block

Take the adapter back off and the trans side of the bell housing and make sure the shifter rails are lined up. Ive done it before.

Definitely try turning it a little, maybe the gears just aligned in a wrong way, maybe the transmission has no oil or something, no 5th gear would be very weird and I have no idea how anyone would break it

Dude!!! Did you notch enough out of the bellhousing to accommodate for movement of the clutch slave? Because the line and bleed post will move with it and will bind and you will not get full engagement / disengagement and you could rip the line off the crimp.

Try hand turning over the motor a couple times with the trans connected. That will get the input shaft moving, might just be slightly misaligned stopping it from going in that particular gear.

Spin it over some. Common problem thats not a problem! The gears are probably misaligned a little bit and hopefully nothing to worry about. Ive had this happen many times personally. Never with CD09 but they all work the same pretty much

Mann i cant wait for this build done 😩 good luck my man

I don’t really have anything to offer on the shifter man, but good luck and I’ll keep showing up for the vids and supporting you as much as I can.

Keep your head up dude

Im still concerned with the gap in the trans cuz it's New York and it snows like crap couldn't the snow damage it

Everyone pray that 5th’s 🍒 🙏🏼

Shifting forks that’s the shifter pushes on had this issue with my Z gotta tear the front and back case apart to fix it but once you do it’s a super simple fix. I’ve done it on almost all z31 Z32 and Z33 transmissions.

Try aligning your shifter plate Calvin it's a common thing in CD09's when changing the shifter plate people tend to not properly align them and that results to being locked out of a gear

Gutted for u if u have to get the gearbox re-built it's going to slow things right down hope u get it sorted soon 👍

So sick hope it’s not a problem

GNR in the background nice bro 🤙

Try spinning the trans by hand then putting it in gear. It might be perfectly lined up not letting it go into gear.

Try rotating the output shaft a bit maybe it's not sync correctly

Kalvin malli where did you find the kit in order to exchange the automatic to the manual transmission

welcome to forever the best mixtape

Did you cut the yoke on the gear box for proper firment.

Hell ya Journey all the way 🤙🤘

Also, with my experience of the cd009, 5th is always the least smooth gear to get into.

2:17 made my day 😂

Deleting that coolant line is definitely the way to go. You don’t need that shizz, mate.

PROB NEED TO TAKE THAT TRANS APART. MINE falls into all the gears no prob. where did u get the trans? known good or unknown?

So when do u see yourself finishing this build (have it running) very new to all this but I enjoy watching the daily updates

I listen to Puerto Rican reggaeton. Gets me in my zone

Sick outro!

Logic - young jedi Siiick bro

Didn’t you say the shifter had a lock out? Is 5th locked out?

When I put my 5 speed trans together for my mustang it wouldn’t go into 5th before the motor was in the car and running, it works fine now that it’s installed, transmission needs to be moving to release tension from the gearset

Lmao dude gave her a little Jim jam. 🤣

11:20 Guns n Roses, ur gonna get claimed real good my man 😅

Uumm i would say put it all together and get some clutch work going to see if that lets u go in gear when i got my cd trans the main shaft wouldn't turn those trans sit for awhile u have to heat them up

1, 2, 3, 4, nothing, 6 😂😂

Where did you learn how to do all this idk if you have answered this already just curious

Yo bro i know why it wont go into 5th gear the plate on top of the shifter has to be adjusted slightly over to the right

Try to turn the crank and see if 5th goes in?

Ayyy notification squad

Rent a storage unit and put all the extra bits in the garage engines etc and move the car into the centre. Make room for yourself : )

Turn the engine and re check it

Gear not going in deff an issue!

hell you dont need 5th lol. 4th to 6th works just fine depending who you are.

5th gear Synchro is what I think your transmission problem is

I listen to logic, juice wrld

I like your videos broooo

I play #parkwaydrive when I'm working on my cars

Weee

hayyy

u wont even need 5th! with a 2j you could get by with 4 gears😂😂😂

spin motor try again

who needs 5th gear anyway ? ;(

Crank the engine a bit a try again

Listen to Metallica

Love the channel but hate the rap music

Real talk. I’m real tired of your poor me videos

you need to stop speaking in an Australian accent
