F40 6-speed conversion released!
 

awesome for the ones that had that $$$!

That's a lot of dead presidents for an extra gear.

Nice. years ago I thought about trying this swap...I glad I didn't because that looks like it took alot of footwork to figuer out.

Rated for more power of course.

It is something to think about getting.

$10K?

ZFR and F40 6 speed. Would be a lot of fun, but I would have to be single and rich to do something so nuts.

its cool and i would go for it if zzp didnt get high and make up crazy prices lol

so much want

If they thought more than 5 people wanted it the prices would come down. Way of the beast.

i think it's priced pretty fairly. $3,649 installed kaput said and done. you can get an F40 for ~$600 (yes some models have different gearing). and you're also getting the new flywheel. the shifter assembly, cables, clutch disc, mounts, and a drop in axles setup.

when you account for all the r&d getting this setup together. then after that, the employee time and material going in to making just one of these kits ready to be sold to public. $3,650 is a steal.

the other two options are a $10k 4t65hd swap. or the quaife 6 speed conversion which is $3,900 just itself. even if you install it, there's still time there. or the cost of having someone else pull your trans, install the gears, install trans. you're looking at $5k for the quaife.

the 4.45 is what a few hundred less than the 6speed? and is good to ~600whp. but with the 6speed you're getting 700+whp, super tight gearing, and an amazing powerband/spool with the selection of gears.... sign this guy up. haha

Man that's a lot of money!!! Way to much for me.

Where did 10K come from ?
I cant get the price higher than 4500,and that's installed.
Iv know people that have paid more than that for a regular rebuilt trans installed.

He'll I think the six speed for the vw were like 14000 a couple years ago.

I would buy it and install it myself. Done deal... When this one goes its on

I feel ya, i've been running a trans i got from a junk yard for a few years now ,1-2 syncrho is pretty much trashed,lots of slop and it sounds like its grinding coffee when in neutral , the damn thing got water in it while it was sitting , didn't know it till i changed the gear oil for the first time and it was milky. So iv been planing to replace the trans anyway. :guns:

My trans is all sorts of noisy id love to upgrade when it blows

Been waiting on a reply for a week now from zzp money is in the bank when are you going to have a Conversion kit ready to ship? Sourcing my own trans.

So had anyone been NLS'ing the crap out of these yet?

I am waiting on my kit. Should be soon. Have had my saab tranny for a couple months already. If you see a good deal, less then a grand you should pick one up. There mostly like 1300 just for the transmission.

i found mine for $1100 plus tax and an extra $100 for a year warranty so it was right around $1300 but it was also close to home

You will be sadly upset if you buy that g6 tranny. Soft ratios, dumb final drive, and a v6 bell housing lol. That's why there so cheap.

soooo, switching to 6 speed require any tuning? Or does the ECU play dumb and think 5th and 6th gear are both 6th gear?

Or am I stupid and ECU doesnt know what gear your in. I thought it did cause it definately knows neutral

I don't think the ecu knows
