The 71 transmission is Nissan's strongest transmission. It was fitted to L-series six cylinders, FJ engines and more. 71 series comes in four different lengths, however a stumpy version is the same length as a Datsun 1200 transmission though obviously much larger around. The stronger 71B replaced the original 71A designs in the 1970s.

Contents

Overview

The 71-series has the mainshaft and countershaft 71 mm apart. This larger transmission is thus stronger than the 56-series used in the Datsun 1200, and stronger than the 63-series used in some A14-powered B210s. The C revision boxes (FS5W71C) was used with 3-liter V6 engines.

Although the Nissan 90-Series Transmission was rated higher, experience shows that the 71C is practically just a as durable even behind a 300ZX turbo (see Gearbox Strength).

While never offered in an A-series version (it would be overkill even for a supercharged A-engine), the 71 is a good choice for larger Engine Swaps.

71 series is also the size of the Datsun 1200 Automatic Transmission (L3N71B), so a 1200 automatic Tunnel should fit them.

71C

FS5W71C - The 71C has a different shifter than the 71B and all versions are longer than the 71B. A 71B front housing can be swapped.

NORTH AMERICA
1983- Nissan 300ZX (non-turbo, turbo uses 90-series)
1986-1989 Nissan D21 (Hardbody) with Z-series engine
1989- Nissan D21 (Hardbody) with KA-series engine
Pathfinder/Xterra/Frontier with KA-series engines
Pathfinder/Xterra/Frontier with VG-series (V6) engines

Interchange

Like transmission parts interchange:

  • 71A bell housings
  • 4-speed to 4-speed
  • 5-speed to 5-speed
  • 71B/71C front cases

Complete transmission units of the same length interchange. For example, replacing a shorty FS5W71B with a shorty FW471.

L-series and Z-series/KA-series use the same bell patttern -- BUT the L-series is a slant engine. So while the transmissions will physically bolt on, use the Z-/KA front case with the Z-series engines, and the L-series front case with the L-series engines. OR, you can bend the gearshift to the appropriate angle, but you risk transmission oil leaking out.
