ISR Performance - Transmission Adapter LSx to 350Z CD00x 6MT 03-08 **Early (DE)**

If you're swapping an LS-series engine into your 2003-2008 Nissan 350Z (early DE chassis), you'll need a solid way to connect it to the factory CD00x 6-speed manual transmission. This adapter plate from ISR Performance is designed to make that crucial drivetrain connection straightforward. It allows you to mate the popular GM LS engine family with the robust Nissan transmission, opening up a world of possibilities for your build.

This adapter plate is machined from a solid block of aluminum, ensuring it's both strong and lightweight. The precision machining ensures that the mating surfaces between the engine and transmission are perfectly aligned, which is critical for smooth operation and preventing premature wear on your components. It's designed to work with the specific bolt pattern of the CD00x transmission and various LS engine blocks, simplifying the process of getting your custom drivetrain installed. This kit includes the adapter plate itself, along with the necessary hardware to bolt it to the engine and transmission, making it a comprehensive solution for your swap project.

When undertaking a complex engine swap like this, having well-made components that fit right is key to a successful build. This adapter plate is a popular choice among enthusiasts looking to combine the power of an LS engine with the feel and reliability of the Nissan CD00x transmission. Ensure you have the correct flywheel or flexplate for your specific LS engine and transmission combination, as this adapter plate facilitates the connection but doesn't change the fundamental requirements of those components.
