What transmission is in a Nissan 350Z?
To determine what transmission is in a 350Z, let’s take a look at both automatic transmission and manual transmission.
Automatic transmission
- Planetary gears - allows the 350Z to move forward and backward in a range of speeds
- Clutch - to control gear shifts
- Bands - bands tighten under pressure for more turning control
- Torque converter - keeps the 350Z from stalling
- Valve body - has hydraulic fluid that engages the clutch and band in order to shift gears
Manual transmission
- Clutch disc - transfers torque from the engine to the entire transmission system
- Clutch pedal - disengages the clutch by tapping on the pedal with your foot
- Synchronizers - synchronizes speed between the gear and collar
- Flywheel - responsible for sending torque from your engine to the clutch disc
- Gears - slows down the speed of the vehicle/allows the vehicle to drive faster
- Selector fork - lets collars move on the output shaft
- Stick shift - allows you to manually shift gears and different gear ratios
- Collar - by manually selecting gears, the collar’s main responsibility is to lock the gear selection in place
