Haha...but you are a big time vendor, I am but a back yard shade tree typeThat's it? I'm pretty sure I'm over ten 6 speed swaps haha. Lost count of how many auto to manual swaps total.
Aren't they nice ? Instead spending $200, as long as you have the pin style linkage, get the 42 DD shift bushing inserts and send me the two shift linkage parts. I can easily mod them for about a 15-20% reduction both ways. On the house for you .i LOVE my 6 speed!!! its a big job, but VERY doable... and now I have to look into a short shift kit, this thing is like rowing a boat!!
I'm wanting to do a 6sp manual B5.5 TDI conversion. If you have any offering or suggestions, PM me. I just bought my wife a B5.5 and I fell in love with it minus the AT.PM's replied!!
I've never actually stripped a 6 speed Beetle so i've never had one of the proper boots, shoot me a P/n and i can offer them new!
Now now Girls, no arguing! haha, I've done more! lol
I've kept away from the Passat conversions as there are too many variables!!I'm wanting to do a 6sp manual B5.5 TDI conversion. If you have any offering or suggestions, PM me. I just bought my wife a B5.5 and I fell in love with it minus the AT.
N 90665001 x 6 - I'll stick a set in the post if you are not in a rush?Ok. I have the 01m Auto Trans removed from my 2001 TDI Beetle. I purchased the ERF 6-speed but my flywheel bolts won't work with the clutch system I received. Where can I get flywheel bolts? What type vehicle do I look up if I ever wanted to purchase a new flywheel or other parts?
Thanks!I've kept away from the Passat conversions as there are too many variables!!

The Gasser parts are very similar but Starters, Flywheels/clutch and the ratios are all diesel specific I'm afraid.
Thanks
While I'm waiting for the bolts, I was thinking about doing the timing belt. Since the Trans is not in, would it be better if I drop the engine to ease the tb job and install both trans and engine together?...N 90665001 x 6 - I'll stick a set in the post if you are not in a rush?

I guess it wont be a bad idea, ezpecially if you are due a coolant and PAS fluid change! I remove the entire front of the car to swap engines, make is much easier!!While I'm waiting for the bolts, I was thinking about doing the timing belt.

Sounds like yours might take the speed sensor from the ABS system, I've not see this issue before but run out models are normally a little strange, haha!Okay I have a issue with my 6-speed swap. My car is a 2005 MK-IV with the Tip, and I am swapping over to the 6-speed. Issue is my Tip did not have a speed sensor, yet the 6-speed does. Do I need to wire it up? I am guessing my MK-4 was late in the run and VW swapped over to the latter style Tips used in the MK5. Gotta to love parts bin bastard children.
I can't wait to get this conversion done!!!!
I'm still a little confused..I have a 2001 Beetle TDI swap to a 6-speed ERF. If I need to order Transmission parts, starters, flywheel or clutch etc... Parts for a manual 2001 Beetle TDI are different correct?...The Gasser parts are very similar but Starters, Flywheels/clutch and the ratios are all diesel specific I'm afraid.
Thanks
Thanks! That's exactly what it was. Mine was 0.8 and I adjusted it to 4.2 and the car runs extra smooth. Ryanp will take care of my switch as he has very good customer services and quick response.Did you check your IQ with vagcom? It could be that when you recoded the transmission the IQ shifted to a much lower number so you will need to do the hammer mod to bring it back into line. I know that on my last auto to manual swap the IQ went from 4.5 to 0.3. I could hardly get the car running.
