6 speed manual trans for 99' z24???

Nope, if you had an Eco or swapped to the Eco, it may be a possibility.

Otherwise it "might" be possible with an adapter plate, but it'll probably make the transmission stick out of the wheel well...

A 2.4 tranny does not bolt to a 3.8, the 2.2 tranny does.

2.2 Eco yes, but not for the 3800... you don't seem to get it, the 2.2 Eco does NOT have the same bellhousing pattern as the 3.8, there is no 6 speed that just bolts up.

You cannot use an eco transmission on the 3800, even though it's a 2.2L it has a different bellhousing than the 2.2L OHV. Only the 2.2 OHV transmission bolts up to the 3.8L

Yeah, that's Raven, and no, he did not use a Z24 tranny. He also had a custom subframe built...

Here, read the 3x00 swap info for yourself

I don't know how else to put it... I'll have Raven come in here himself and tell you he didn't use a 2.4 tranny.

"2002 Getrag F23 5-speed tranny "

Where does it say Z24 in there? Its a 2200 transmission.

By the way, you don't have an F23 transmission, you have an isuzu, I don't know for sure but I think its an MK7.

You can use the 5 speed from the 2.2L (non-ecotec version), I would suggest using a 2000-2002 model.

ok but will that handle the extra torque because i do plan on doing some performance mods to the engine. i think the stock torque is somewhere in the region of 220 ft lbs i dunno...

MK7 is the 2.2 (non ecotec) trans i though MJ1 or something is the 2.4 isuzu not that is matters cuz Shifted is right about every thing else I am just bored and wanted to put that out there
The 2.2 trans should be cool with a 3800 motor i mean i know there are a few people runing quit a bit of power though that trans besides its not a matter of power its how much you beat on it I run a isuzu still in my 2.4 turbo and I am running a good bit of power and I have launched with drag slicks and its still holding not sure how much long but you get the point.

you will need tranny, shifter assembely, half shafts and prob mounts. look on grandamgt.com they put the g6 tranny behind there 3400 same bell housing so that will prob be your best place for more info. but it does sound like it might be over your head but idk. a little research goes a long way.
