write down how you get on with the electrics james 

[serek]

Cheers - PM sent to Joff!

With regards to the electrical side of this work... I understand the 3.2 differs to what's in the guide, being DBW and all that...

How is the ignition timing retard, starter inhibitor, and other such electrics set up, to configure the car as a manual?

Has it been confirmed whether Tech2 input is required, what changes need to be made, and if Tech2 is capable of doing this?

Cheers,
James

if you get stuck with something let me know and I pm you my phone nr or you can drop me your nr and will tell how to get all in right place

The only worry I have, is the electrics, telling the ECU it's now a manual, etc...

2.0 flywheel is definitely not suitable. wrong bolt pattern to crankshaft.

IMO, the Vectra / Cavalier flywheel isn't suitable, either as the clutch face is too close to the engine.

I'm pretty sure Serek got over this by using a spacer.  Sure there's some pics on here somewhere.

Why not use an Omega V6 flywheel?

[2woody]

that's the solution.

electrics is the easy bit - just go through the wiring diagram and remove everything that is auto. Probably the easiest part of the job.

vectra b V6 its same size flywheel as omega
only differents is vectra its solid not DMF

early c20xe or c20let was fitted with ftat type flywheel (6.4) but that not problem too
thats can be fitted to omega with this spacer

I keep all electrics, just do few bridges on wiring so criuse control work

when we made manual conversion , cruise control work was solved with some wiring..
 
but nobody cant find ignition retard wiring ?
 
"Locate the Bk/R wire on pin 42, cut off as far from pin 42 as possible (can do this further up the loom if preferred) then solder to one of the thin Brown wires and tape joint."
 
we had trouble with pin 42 and colors

thats what I found with wires for criuse control near ecu they are different on year of the car think its 3 or 4 different wiring for it
I done conversion on my mate 3.0 and cant see any differents if the wire from pin 42 is cut off or not, any way on 2.6 and 3.2 they are have different witing too

yep.. wirings are different and even colors..

best to remove all auto wiring completely,and control boxes, etc. Not just cut off

why??
whats wrong with cut off??

[2woody]

it's a bodge.

if we're converting to another spec, its best to do it properly, rather than leave half the components in place.

any mod should be done at least to the same standard as the original manufacture, if not better.
