Tranny vibration on deceleration? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Does anyone else get some vibration in their tranny whenever they let off of the gas? It's happened ever since my 5spd swap, but I didn't think much of it until a long freeway drive today.

It's more of a dull drone, (thudthudathudathudathuda)...it doesn't seem to affect performance at all, but I just wanna make sure it isn't anything to be worried about...

Well check em all again. Mine comes loose ever so often. Locktite is your new friend when that happens.

Look up an old thread. Try searching for "driveline vibration". Pretty much, you just have to deal with it. It's when you are at 2500-2000 right? Most people that have the problem have upgraded pucked clutches.
