Read Before Asking "how Do I Make My Na Faster?

very common question around here. here is your answer before you ask.

All I managed to accomplish was to move the engine's advertised HP from the flywheel to the drive wheels.

because some people never bother with the Performance/Technical section, and some go straight there.

Help! I’m not sure how to start new thread.

hi guys,

I am so sorry I am posting here. Can someone please help me. I need help with my transmission. So I need to find out what kind of transmission I have. It’s a 1987 z31, I just bought it. I notice when I put in 1st, it pops out, once it is in it stays in. Then I drive and notice same with 3rd gear, it stays out unless I hold the gear ver y hard time to enjoy the car. So what I did was took the boot off the stick where meet transmission and cleaned up a bit now my first goes in and stay it does not POP OUT WHEN I KET THE CLUTCH OUT. I tried to see if my car has short shifter I may believe previous owner have put one in. I can’t find correct transmission!!!!! Ughhhhh so there are only four bolts on top where it meets the stick and the transmission. I will post pictures if possible. PLEASE HELP OR HELP ME POST NEW THREAD IF POSSIBLE.
