X25XE to X30XE

GrahamT:
Has anyone converted their 2.5 manual to 3.0?

If so was it worth it and did the 2.5 gearbox survive?

Thanks

henryd:
Easy swap as plug and play but AR25 gearbox will not cope with 3.0 torque

tigers_gonads:
How many miles has the manual box done ?

I ran a 3ltr with a R25 box with no problems but it was a relatively low millage box with only 90K on it.


With the R28's liable to have plenty of miles on by now / in short supply and the R30 like rocking horse shite, i'd just do it and enjoy  :y :D :D

Kevin Wood:
Yep, the manual 2.5 gearboxes are no problem with a bit more power. It's the automatic gearboxes that are an issue.

You might want to consider a diff with a taller ratio, though, but you can see how it goes with your current diff first.

GrahamT:
Thanks guys.

A few more questions. Finding a x30xe from an auto doesn't seem to be a problem. But will my 2.5 flywheel fit and will an auto ecu be happy running a manual?
