Posted October 25, 200618 yr Any one done this or know of the ruff cost including parts and labour? Or even breaking a manual, send me prices. Advice appreciated. :bow:
October 25, 200618 yr As far as i know your looking at around £750 for the parts and around £400 for fitting. Paul.
October 25, 200618 yr Cheers chap. super quick response your fingers musta been lingering over the keys waiting for a newbie to ask a Q. LOL Anyone know if there is a difference in JDM and UK cars. The car would be UK-spec, could I fit a JDM OR a UK 'box or would it have to be Uk?
October 25, 200618 yr I take it the N/A and TT boxes are different, guessing an N/a box wouldn't last very long on a TT???
October 25, 200618 yr I got quoted about £1500 quid for an auto to manual conversion so i banged another auto box on instead, cost me less than £500. If i were you id speak to mark at zen garage, his prices are the best around and he can do the job standing on his head.
October 25, 200618 yr Cool, thanks guys I'm aware of the different auto/manual engine tunes. and notice there is a write up on the conversion: http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=1870 here. I consider myself handy enough when it comes to car mechanics to attempt it myself....when the time and the funds come :rolleyes:.
October 26, 200618 yr I take it the N/A and TT boxes are different, guessing an N/a box wouldn't last very long on a TT??? Well the bellhousings are definitely different because the TT clutch is larger, not sure about the gearboxes, need to check the ratios etc.
October 27, 200618 yr NA prop is also different. NA gearbox is less strong inside and has a lower ratio.n Ivan
