Fun times with 1993 300zx
So I was driving when the shifter in my 1993 300ZX got VERY wobbly/loose, and I was quite confused. Apparently, there is a part on a 1993 300ZX manual transmission that fails often. The Shifter Support Bracket for the 1993 300zx just straight up busted on me…
Now the shifter would go into gear, and while in gear, it seemed fine. When you pulled it out, it would rattle a bit because the shifter would go down and hit the drive shaft, which was a bit odd to me. No pictures just yet, but here is some info from someone else that had the same problem.
After initial research, I thought it was what this guy thought it was (the bushings), but after tearing apart the front dash of my 1993 Nissan 300ZX, I soon found out it wasn’t.
Funny anecdote – I like to drive this car, so I used some JB Weld to see if it would hold it in place until I could pick up a part. It worked for the past 3 days
I found the part locally – Link @ Website Pit Stop Performance in Phx, so hopefully you can get this part at a local vendor; if not, these guys are good and can ship it to you. I called my local dealer and the guy said it was $170….. um.. I will take $ 40 vs. $170 any day!
