@@TheCarPassionChannel greg its joe from london uk, i really want u to sort this whole vibrarion out as i am in the process of going down the zf route but watching u over the years has frightened the shit out of me. I need to change my box as im running 338.8 at the wheels and just waiting for myb6 speed to go bang.
still dont know how greg doesnt have a million subscribers this is hands down the best car channel on youtube keep up the awesome work man content only gets better!!
@@adamcroteau8711 I used Thecarpassionchannel to build a forged 1.8 VVT engine, I never worked on cars before and with his video's it was easy. I only went the cheap route since I'll be running a td04.
The 4 stages of Miata: 1.Miatas are pretty cool. 2.Miatas are pretty cool and can make some power. 3.Miatas can make some power but it's a ton of work. 4.Can this thing work for just one week?
Saw the little message at the end. Hell yeah Greg! Knew you'd figure it out, it gives me confidence when I end up doing all this that it wont just break my car indefinitely.
hey Greg, I forgot to Inform you I did a spectrum analysis on the audio from one of the vibration videos, and I found the vibration is the same frequency as the driveshaft. The only thing you hadn't touched was the diff, correct? I believe the vibration may have been caused by the diff pinion.
Keuzy I think he said the vibration is already fixed in his other video but that he had not released the video. Time will tell what the actual issue was, can’t wait
Appreciate your vids. I haven't done transmission swaps but they motivate me to keep wrenching. I did do a clutch and flywheel almost entirely by watching your how to vid 😂.
Everything STOP ....... it's another CPC video! Great to hear that the vibration is sorted - whether by accident or design (?) - really pleased for you ¦:¬D
JDARJISJ From your recent videos on the vibration issue I was very surprised to hear you say that you thought it was in the driveline, not the transmission. Now you swapped this in but taking it up to speed to see how bad it vibrated wasn’t the first thing you did. It is as if you didn’t want the transmission to be the cause. Glad to hear it is fixed though. You are an inspiration to a lot of guys who want to tinker with their cars.
hi greg i think its your adapter, from the transmisson to the driveshaft, you cut that alinement tap off, i'm pretty sure bmw has put it there for a reason, to keep the driveshaft true to the transmisson output flange :) aaaaand big big fan from denmark :)
Good Hard work. Can you show us your tips and tricks to jack up the car? (I know there are a million vids on this subject but the greg way is prob the fastest, most reliable way....)
Im sad that our mans Craigory sounds and looks so bummed in this video... what a long, frustrating journey this vibration crap has been. Pumped for next vid tho see what the hell was the issue
Hi Greic, What oil are you using on the ZF ? in currently swapping my miata and the gearbox makes noises, reading online people say its because of the Oil, some people recommend to use ATF oil. wanted to hear from you experience.
3600lbs and 400lbs of torque, and I'm sure it takes some abuse to break it. I'm not too worried, the diff I removed was intended for 110ft-lbs of torque and I haven't broken it yet 😆
Any chance the engine/tranny/diff mount bushings are causing the vibration? I believe I saw somewhere that if the bushings have different densities you can develop a weird harmonic/vibration. The bushing densities for all the drivetrain mounts should be the same?
Hey man, I have a questio for ya. How much powe do you estimate a forged, cammed and turbo 1.6 miata making? Also, love the channel man, very informative and lots of great content🙏☝☝💯
how far does the drive shaft stick out of the transmission? and if you want to see if the drive shaft is the vibration problem...get a hose clamp and put it around the drive shaft near the diff yoke. try it in the 12, 3, 6 and 9 o'clock positions to see if the vibration minimizes or goes away...💪
Just got my zf 5 speed with 175k miles on it and the previous owner just had the detents professionally redone. Im considering redoing all the seals. Think this is something i can tackle myself or should i take it to a shop?
Yop ! Why do you keep a 5 gears transmission ? If i was changing the entire gearbox as you do, i will probably go to a 6 gears one. There is a technical reason ?
@@TheCarPassionChannel yay! You are an amazing miata vlogger thank you for everything that you do. You go beyond expectations... and it's noticed. I always look forward to your content... thank you
@@Frog_man007 IRP now offers the adapter plate to run their BMW shifter in a Miata, that's the setup I'm on now. The Miata 6-speed can handle that level of torque as long as it's not abused, I would give that a try. It's cheaper and easier to keep the Mazda setup in place, and a much better shifting experience IMO. But at the point of breaking 6-speeds, the BMW setup is a good option
TheCarPassionChannel get out the grinding wheel and welder! time to open up that transtunnel And you know how reliable Thay are we are talking 600 hp daily on stock internal And 6 speed 🤔
@@MRTuning704 6 gears aren't really necessary, I can always go to the ZF 6-Speed if I change my mind. People are drag launching ZF's at 1000whp without issue 🙂
TheCarPassionChannel yeah but with all the problems you’ve gone through it was probably cheaper and easier just to do it in the first place but it’s almost done and she looks like she’s ripping again so fingers crossed 🤞 I think it should hold
Everyone: Get a ZF
TheCarPassionChannel: NO
2 years later going through transmissions **
TheCarPassionChannel: Ok yall win
There was nothing wrong with the Getrag; and I'd still prefer those ratios. But yes the ZF shifts real nice.

"...line up tool EASILY slides in and out..." way more important than many give it credit for.
Honestly, I just taped an extension to a tight fit on pilot and disk. All the plastic tools I've ever tried were sausages down a hall.
Solid vid! I'm so happy you film this kind of stuff. It really is so useful and entertaining!

Nice I'm glad you get the vibrations fixed.
I hope this fixes the rattle but i think theres a reason why bmws have 2 piece flywheels and dampening rings on the driveshaft
HELL YEAH! Cya nasty never ending vibration
Hell yeah bro!!! Psyched for you and excited to see where the car will go now that you've hurdled this roadblock
So happy for you man, that vibration was upsetting me for you!
2 uploads by Greg in a week? Wack.
congratulations on the vibration fix
best outro comment ever. cant wait for next vid great news dude so glad its finally fixed
Can’t wait for the next video.
So this is the fix for the shake? Saw your comment on the last video. Hyped man!
No; the next video will contain that
You know you could start a new channel just for these transmission issues/swaps. There's a certain ring to TheTransPassionChannel, right?
I think that ring might give the wrong message
LMAO
Hahahaha
@@TheCarPassionChannel - I dunno, lmao.
Really, fixed?? Already got a tear in my eye. Cant wait!

i'm not going to rewatch previous video, but what if you replace PU diffmounts with rubber? Now I'm currious about the next video :)
that vibration was enough to try out anyone

28 clutches later…
Pfft at least 36😂

hmm.. whatsup with the zip ties on the wheel? .. btw @thecarpassionchannel have you seen the clip of Mantas Sliogeris winning the Gymkhana?
That caddilac diff your planning on using likes to break in the gen 1 CTS-V .

Mostly depends on turbo size and fuel type!
how far does the drive shaft stick out of the transmission? and if you want to see if the drive shaft is the vibration problem...get a hose clamp and put it around the drive shaft near the diff yoke. try it in the 12, 3, 6 and 9 o'clock positions to see if the vibration minimizes or goes away...💪
I'm toying with the idea of throwing a kl-ze in a Miata someday
woop woop! turn it up to 500 and take it to the drags
*spits rod*
Just got my zf 5 speed with 175k miles on it and the previous owner just had the detents professionally redone. Im considering redoing all the seals. Think this is something i can tackle myself or should i take it to a shop?
I wonder to maybe the diff mount to the subrframe is cracked or something letting the diff vibrare
Nice!
Hi Greg I'm installing the gs6-37dz in my mx5 what is the clutch plate part number for the puk disc.
Is that a go pro hero 3 😂
That zf shifts great
It's a 5 but the quality really goes to trash as it gets darker and it tries to compensate
Like first come back later to watch
We are so close to 100k subs!
when the windsheild gopro turned on and the bov squealed i came
Naaaaaaaah bru, we want more RIPS!!!!
AYYYYYY
Wheeee
Told you..... it was the output shaft of the Getrag 260! Need higher quality bearings.
Nope! Actually nothing to do with the transmission at all.

Autocross next week ?!
why does the drive footage have reverb?
hopefully a hard pull in 1st or 3rd doeesnt knock the shifter out of gear lol
It'll only come out easily with no power being put down. With your foot barely on the gas you'll have to use muscle to pull it out
Husqvarna eh. You also a bike guy? I have a husky dirt bike as well as miata.
Should have gotten the 6 speed.
First miata to hit 200mph
why not get a twin disk clutch? is it over kill to do so?
Flywheel is custom on this setup already, otherwise I would definitely go twin disc for the revs and holding power (like my previous setup)
you lost your speedo right?
Have you considered an inner cv joint causing your vibration
Its commen on front wheel drive and turbo
Anyone know if they make an adapter kit for e36 getrag?
I think they’re good trans. Its stock in bmw
Why not go to a BMW 530D manual 6 speed? They can take a lot of abuse
👍🏻
What shifter are you running in this video?
IRP
Nice bro, you may have inspired me to swap over a bmw trans to my NA lol. I’m chasing 375ish to the wheels and 275 torque.

how did you did the tach to work?
Tachometer functionality has nothing to do with the transmission, it works just like it does from factory
Why not go with a Ford 8.8 diff? Be a ton cheaper and hold all u wanna toss at it with the 4 banger! :)
That swap is heavier and has less exhaust clearance
"Goes from about 2 inches to just over 3 inches, and I measured from the top of the knob"

new 0-100, 100-200?

Swaps the driveshaft 69 times
vibration still there
"probably the driveshaft"
swaps the diff
vibration fixed
"Yep totally the driveshaft"
Diff swap uses a shorter driveshaft with a higher critical speed 😃✅
Maybe your driveshaft is not weighed in properly
just like on wheels
