Hey guys, I have been searching for a while on the internet on this being done... With no luck of course haha. I did find that people did say that you could put a GTS 6spd C60 Transmission onto a 1ZZFE GT Engine. Well I decided to get ballsy and try it. I ordered it, and put it in last weekend. Other than one solid stud that blocked me from bolting it to the block... Which I pulled out with a flat head screwdriver and vice grips, It did bolt right up!
Why did I do this? Well my old transmission was going bad I couldn't find a used 5spd that was in good shape and had a good price. it's the only car I got, so I needed to do a quick swap and the C60 was cheaper and available... I plan on rebuilding the 5spd C56 transmission and selling it when it's ready. I did notice a small speed increase and increase in gas mileage by maybe 3 mpg on highway. It feels great! Now I just need a new shift knob that has 6spd shift info lol.
All in all I just wanted to be that guy that says... "Yes it's official, I have done it, and it's quite easy to do and I am very happy with the results!"
