![]() ![]() Currently, the Frontier transmission is easier to find and is much less expensive on the used as well as the new market than the T56. For one, a T56 often is expensive, partly because these transmissions are becoming more scarce on the used auto parts market. It’s trending as the ‘go to’ swap for several reasons. Lately, car enthusiasts are looking to the Nissan Frontier as a T56 alternative. It was mounted in cars like the Camaro, Firebird, GTO, and CTS-V and has been a favorite transmission for conversion projects for years. Similar to the Nissan CD009, the T56 is a factory-installed 6-speed manual transmission from GM. With its close gear ratios and 4x4 option, this transmission will be perfect for the off-roader who wants a solid manual transmission for rock climbing and mud bogging, as well as the classic muscle car with a tall rear gear ratio. In addition, these transmissions are affordable and readily available from your local salvage yard. ![]() Unlike the car transmission which all have a remote-mounted shifter located very far back, the Frontier/Xterra transmission shifters are top mounted and are better suited for these conversions.Īlthough the Frontier/Xterra transmission has similar internals as the CD009, it also has a larger case and is offered in both 2WD and 4x4 versions. A significant advantage of the D40 and N50 transmissions over the CD009, for which G Force also offers a Z33 LS transmission adapter, is the shifter location. Like the more well-known CD009 6-speed manual transmission offered in Nissan cars, these truck transmissions are robust and work great mated to a GM V8 engine. And, they perform exceptionally well with an LS engine making this new kit a much-anticipated addition to the G Force line of LS conversion components. Both Nissan trucks have tough and reliable factory-installed 6-speed manual transmissions for 2WD and 4X4. Combining brute strength with precision engineering, the T56 is the perfect choice for cruisers and track racers alike.When paired with a solid manual transmission like those found on the 2005 and newer Nissan Frontier (D40) and Xterra (N50) V6 (VQ40DE) trucks, DIYers all over the country get excited about the performance of this combination. The T56 Super Magnum can accommodate three shifter positions and includes a two-position shifter plate, shifter handle, and Chevrolet Performance-logo ball-type shifter knob. You’ll also find a more conventional slip-yoke design plus a 40-tooth reluctor ring designed for the electronic vehicle speed sensors used with Chevrolet Performance controllers. Larger components, including thicker gears and output shaft, provide greater strength. Designed for custom, LS retro-fit installations, the T56 Super Magnum is a beefed-up version of the high-performance TR6060 transmission you’ll find in the Camaro ZL1. Simply put, no other Chevrolet Performance manual transmission offers as much combined strength, versatility, and control. ![]() If you’re on the hunt for a heavy-duty transmission able to withstand an unbelievable torque capacity-700 lb-ft to be exact-while still providing crisp shifts, check out the all-new Chevrolet Performance T56 Super Magnum Six-Speed Manual Transmission.
