Title: FS: Auto to manual conversion 'kit' for V6
Post by: sjc on 26 December 2014, 18:41:41
Complete kit to convert from a V6 auto to manual.

Includes: R28 gearbox ; front prop section ; working dual-mass flywheel ; concentric slave cylinder ; good used clutch disc and pressure plate ; clutch pedal, cylinder and pipework ; 'normal' width brake pedal ; new flywheel bolts (part # 9126581) ; new manual gearbox/rear engine mounting damper block (part # 90447547) - the auto gearbox cross-member is the same as the manual one, it's the mounting damper block that is different.

The process is relatively straight-forward, I found the guide prepared by Matchless to be very useful.. http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=90592.0 (http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=90592.0)

I would also suggest replacing the rear crank seal (part # 90325572, RRP £40) which you can pick up on www.carpartsconnexion.com pretty cheap usually.

£285 delivered anywhere in the UK, or £250 collected from Central Scotland.

They're good for 270k+ ;)

(That's to say mine still works as advertised)

The box, clutch and flywheel have covered about 90k.

No great rush mate, just a garage clear out for some upcoming building work starting in April.

Could also sell you a ready converted MV6 😉
