The Nissan 200SX Mainshaft Washer maintains the ideal gap between gears, allowing torque to flow seamlessly through the unit while enhancing fast shifts. The Mainshaft Washer is positioned between the rotating gear faces and thrust surfaces to absorb any lateral loads and prevent metal to metal contact, a tiny job that pays big dividends in everyday Nissan reliability. Its specific thickness keeps synchronizers in place so that every 200SX transmission remains quiet at idle and under redline. This avoids gear jump and premature wear that would take a cherished Nissan coupe off the road. The early Nissan 200SX gearbox was fitted with a hardened steel Mainshaft Washer while later versions have a nitrided, oil grooved Mainshaft Washer. This cooling washer quickly cools and also channels oil towards the bearing journals for impressive endurance. A uniform distribution of oil along those fine spiral grooves inside the Mainshaft Washer helps to dissipate heat and protect the thrust area during hard launches and highway cruising. As the Mainshaft Washer resists scoring and thinning, regular checks require no more than a quick visual inspection. This is one of the indicators that demonstrate it is a low hassle maintenance model, which has helped many Nissan 200SX cars clock high mileage. The unit is designed to slot perfectly into the five speed and six speed manuals applied across the various generations of 200SX, from the early CsP311 lineage to the turbocharged S15, allowing the use of parts that fit within the original Nissan design envelope. By ensuring that every single ounce of engine power is effectively applied through the drivetrain, the Mainshaft Washer also has a positive effect on safety. Smooth engagement of gears ensures that the driver can pay attention to traffic instead of struggling with a balky shift lever. Not many components of the transmission have a low weight yet do much, but this Mainshaft Washer has gained a following among performance fans who appreciate how a part simply works every time they enter a nimble Nissan 200SX.
