A quick search for "6speed" will give you the answer.

A good read: https://www.zdriver.com/forums/300zx...ns-swap-32281/

And after all that, unless you daily drive on a rural freeway that has 80mph+ speed limits, you'll never need 6th gear.

But alas, if you have tons of money, and awesome fab skills, get to it!
