With the ever growing popularity of the z33 swap option I thought that it was time for its own dedicated thread. This page will entail specifics on every available option for swapping in the trans. My build is ongoing so I will rely on other members to help build this page.
Adapters:
There are several on the market to choose from
Maverick motorsports
http://www.maverick-motorsports.com/...-adapter-plate
COST: $430
I personally own this plate and I can say the quality and precision is spot on
Collins
http://collinsadapters.com/index.php...ter-plate.html
COST: $350
Mazworx

COST: $900
The price is high on this one but it doesn't require you to use an adapter plate. However you do need to cut your bell housing to use this. Keep that in mind if you have a warranty.
Autotech

COST: $295
I thought JWT had an option but I can't find it. Their website feels encrypted sometimes.
Slave cylinder option:
Internal or external. My opinion external is the way to go with these transmissions due to the amount of negative reviews on the internal. From what I've read Nissan didn't quite fix the internal slave problem till the later model 370z's. Another downside is if your slave fails you'll need to pull the trans off just to correct the issue.
Clutch fork, carrier, bearing, pivot ball
I can't speak for other kits but the Maverick motorsports kit requires you to use the z33 clutch fork, extended pivot ball and clip. I bought the upgraded version from z1motorsports.

Will you need to use the sr20 carrier and throw out bearing.
Cross members.

This kit allows you to use the z32 trans mount only.
Driveshaft.
Only option I'm aware of that you can buy directly from is shaft masters. They have an ABS and non ABS option.

Shifter modification.
Everyone who has looked into this swap know about the terrible shifter placement that requires cutting into the chassis. Well after a ton of research looking into Ive found 2 companies that are now building custom shifters for various application with the cd009.
First is Jason Farmer at CBF Performance. I've personally talked with him about his product and offered what solution would be best for my platform which is his rear mount set up. His products can be purchased for around high 200- mid 300.
Currently on sale for a group buy at $185

The other is SERIALNine. From the amount of info they put out it looks like they will only be releasing a mid mount set up which MIGHT bang against the body. They are currently in production and should be available late May. Heard the retail will be about $350 US. Will post link when available.
