Hi im chasing info on doing a ls1 conversion on my gq nissan patrol using castlemaine rod shop bellhousing. need to know what clutch, pressure plate and flywheel to use and where do i get them from? can i use a gq slave cylinder, clutch fork and throwout bearing? also whats the best way to go for computer and wiring?
my motor came out of an 02 calais auto.
please any info would be greatly appreciated
reply....
Should have grabbed the auto and just put an adaptor on for the transfer. Im surprised that they cant point you in the right direction from which you have purchased the bellhousing. Marks adaptors may also be able to help you out if you give them a call. Thats about all i can add hopefully someone will be along shortly to add.
why... do you know how much it is to use the auto??
Im not sure costwise mate sorry. I would have thought a similar sort of cost. It just removes the drama of trying to source different clutch parts and both boxes are strong and can handle good power. I think they still use a gm clutch but dont quote me on that. sorry i cant help you out more
MAD GQ just a warning for your interest. You should rmove yourphone number from the post mate. Ask people to PMyou and exchange phone nubers there. You never can be sure who is scanning the internet for phone numbers to use in marketing etc.

You can buy a standalone wiring loom from ebay for about $600 for the ls1
As nissannewby said go auto. I wish i had would be heaps beta in the bush.Quote:

As for throw out bearing it came with marks kit. The wiring loom i sent up to killla kustoms in QLD and he modded the engine loom for me.
Marks 4X4 have been great to me

ANd don't get ripped off with a pcm reprogramme.

For $80 you get the same thing
i brought my stand alone harness for 620 delivered to my door with them supplying the harness. usually you have to surply the ls1 harness and they chop it for you, i got mine through road runner offroad. they did a really good job too looks mint as.
