5speed box into an s15

right i blew 3rd gear outta me 6speed box on the track session at japfest.
now i think i will do the 5speed conversion as my new paddle clutch will without a doubt make a sh1te out of another 6speed.

now i was reading a "how to" on the s15oc and the member said that all i need is the 5speed flywheel because they do not use a dual mass, now wha i want to know is can i use the solid flywheel i got with my exedy clutch kit because that already replaced the dual mass?
anybody know if this can be done because im already broke as an ass and dont hav the money just yet for the gear box let alone another new flywheel

Lads the 5 speed s14 boxes aren't any stronger then the 6 speed s15 ones.

If its strength you want for abuse then its a an R33 GTS-t or a 300zx box conversion you want.

is a skyline box not pricey? i can get a 5 speed there for bout 200 squid would hav it in the car with everything i need for 400 yoyos, and them oul 6speeds arent worth a fook, only good for easy driving, if it cant take occasional drifty SHES NO GOOD to the likes of meself, plus the new exedy paddle clucth will chew another 6speed

The internals of a rb25 box and a z32 box are exactly the same....!

6 speed solid flywheel will NOT work with a 5 speed box...the clutch will however fit the 5 speed flywheel...
if you want I have a cheap 6 speed box here...Well I actually have the complete 6 speed conversion...Fidanza solid flywheel...Exeedy organic clutch and box with all bolts etc... Pm me if you interested
