Ferrari F430 DIY Manual Conversion Part 1
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- This is our multi-part series of a F1 to manual transmission conversion on a Ferrari F430 using a DIY EAG USA conversion kit. We will do a step by step series of videos on this process. Not all of the steps will be included so please refer to the instruction manual as well as these videos. Also there may be elements that we are including that are not part of a typical manual conversion and other elements that are skipped because of optional components of our specific conversion. This will also cover most of a Ferrari 360 manual conversion as they are very similar.

I don't care what other people says, but I just love these DIY videos. If someone say, it's boring to watch, I suggest to check are you really car guy, if you at the first place end up here.
Yeah it's interesting for those that find it interesting. Lol
It’s pretty cool to see Dan get back to his roots on YT. I remember watching him change the oil on his first F430
Hear! Hear!!!
Two legends working on a Ferrari so 9 years later some dude (maybe me) watch this and solve their problem
Haha nice
Finally, old style NGS wrenching on an F430 with clear video details, love it. Looking forward to the series!
More to come!
Very impressive how good you were at labeling and organizing the screws, nuts, and bolts. That'll make reassembly so much easier, there's nothing worse than looking for a screw, wasting time 🙄.
Oh yeah there's way too many not to stay on top
You guys work well together. Great to see Dan back to his DIY videos
More to come!
Love it Dan back to the old school Dan days and this is a really awesome video series you're working on. For all you kids out there doing this on your own FYI those seats are really especially when you're trying not to damage the interior of the car. Great work!
Yup gotta be extra careful
While I have no immediate interest in doing a manual conversion, this video series is going to become a super valuable reference for disassembly alone! The number of parts you will be touching is nuts… And when any of us 430/360 owners have any problem with any of the parts you are touching, these videos will be the go to resource for how to access them.
Thank you so much for sharing and please keep doing so!
Yeah I was thinking that too. We r&r just about half the damn car. Lol
Love this DIY wrenching. This is going to be an awesome series!!!
Hope so!
This is an amazing series, just started today. Looks like I have 2 weeks of ending my night with the next step. Great idea to do this on youtube. Really like it.
Thank you!
Nicely done guys! Built not bought. Cool thing is, I can see you two as young guys working in your first cars. Gotta love DIY projects that will be so rewarding.
Right on!
Nice to see the productivity back! Look forward to seeing this through.
More to come!
Just happened across your channel again after years, and you're undertaking one of the coolest projects every! Lucky days! I'll be tuned in for the lot of it!
Cool thanks
Ooooo.....this is exciting !!! You guys are off to a great start !!!
I think so too!
Very informative video. I don`t have a 430 ( Have a 512 TR and a diablo 6.0) but contemplating buying one. And want a manual. The price is 10 000 usd for the DIY-kit?? Something like that? Buy the way; the video is actually "super entertaining". Drinking beer and watching in slo-mo to learn all the details!! LOL
The 430 and 360 diy kit is $25k at this time.
Can't wait for the full series!
More to come
Great video Dan and Steven! Lots of fiddly things to do but you guys are killing it! Looking forward to future videos!
Thank you
Like these videos! I learned some tricks from what you guys are doing. I may not have a Ferrari to work on, but it’ll work on any car that I work on.
Great to hear!
Don't forget to label the centre console switch plug sockets. Some plug sockets are unused (Ferrari likes to make standard looms for both F1 and gated cars and their options). If you plug a switch plug into an unused or wrong socket upon reinstallation, you could blow fuses. 11:45 I believe the "speaker looking thing" is related to the parking sensors. 26:57 is the Suspension ECU
Yup
My aching back, I could never do the contortion act like that, of course my back is fused at L4 - L5. I put a Pionner deck in my 430 and I was hurting after. The model was:
AVH-Z7200DAB
Yeah it's a lot of discomfort
Is that a motorized flip out unit? I am looking at the AVH-3500NEX that was recommended. Do you know the big difference of the two?
@@chrisparker4940 it is the flip out unit. I saw a review on RUclips and bought it. I don't know how it compairs to the 3500, but mine does the Apple Car Play & Android. I tied the parking break wire together with a black, as shown in the video, and now the music video's play when it's in drive. Here is the video: ruclips.net/video/8n8Dj7nkgWY/видео.html It's not a scam link. I'm a Ferrari Club of America member. Pacific Region
Good job guys I look forward to the rest of the series!
More coming
14:00 Instead of a dremel, a multitool cutter would probably work more precisely. I would also score the leather with an exacto knife prior to cutting it.
Good idea
Looking forward to this series of videos 👍
More to come!
Thats more like it. Nice detailed video like you used to do. Now watch your subs rocket. keep it up Dan.
Well the subs won't. Look at the views they are pretty low unfortunately. But that's not the goal of this series
There are far fewer "car guys" among the potential YT car enthusiasts than you'd think. The videos that are good for subs are always in some way controversial (e.g., cops, damage, crashes, etc.).
Brill. Really well shown/described.
Glad you liked it
I love these DIY vids and looking forward to the next one.
More to come!
I don’t know, I’ve done enough home wrenching on modern complex cars to think a DIY manual conversion sounds almost as iffy as a do your own root canal😂. Comprehensively reading the manual and properly planning the job could take 26 hours by itself. If I already spent Ferrari money and then cost of the kit money, I would play it safe spend some more and take it to a certified by EAG shop.
This is however going to be a fascinating video.
There's nothing wrong with having them do it. This is definitely not a job for everyone
When I have to refrence pdf files for car work I use an ipad. Keeping it where you're working makes a ton of difference in time when doing long jobs.
Yeah Stephen bought that Chromebook just for this
Awesome, and what an opportunity to shampoo the carpets
Yes indeed!
Excited to see if you guys replace the throw out bearing or if you use the F1 fluid in the clutch master cylinder method.
Yup
Amazing!
Thanks!
Awesome!
Thank you! Cheers!
I own a Citroen 2CV not a Ferrari , but found this very interesting
Thanks
Loving this video and will thoroughly enjoy watching this series. Even though I do not own one of these cars. Why are you deleting the E diff?
If you keep the e-diff then you have to keep the F1 pump
@@normalguysupercar ah
Why did you bypass the E-Diff, and how does that affect the performance? Does it mean that the diff cannot prevent diff slip?
You'll see
Love these sorts of videos. Looking forward to see it progress. PS will those carbon paddles fit a Stradale? 🤔
I don't think the 430 and 360 paddles are interchangeable
@@normalguysupercar no I think you’re right. Oh well!
I guess Stephen won't need to attend his yoga class for the duration of this swap😄
Lol nope but he needs to stretch before we start each day
hey so i got a question for ya I know the 2008+ are the models to get for the F430 but if I plan to do a manual conversion like this, would any year really matter? Is there other quality changes other than the transmission in later year cars that I should take into account? 2008+ models are significantly more expensive than earlier years that's why I ask... thanks!
Actually I would get 08 or earlier. The 09s have some things that aren't as easy to deal with
@@normalguysupercar ok cool thank you!
I would relocate the battery to the front trunk and replace the battery with a light weight Lithium racing battery !
It's a reasonable place but yes an antigravity battery would be a good upgrade
Did you just wipe your greasy finger on the carpet 😂😂😂
Maybe
Hi Dan! Would it be possible to install one of these gated shifters into a non ferrari transmission, like a t56 or a cd009?
No it's pretty specific to the vehicle and transmission.
I wonder if AutoTopNL have one of your kits.....?!
I have no idea
Is this an HOA approved project and video :)
Lol I honestly don't care
how much was the kit please, and does it include all parts necessary? thanks steve
M not sure how much for the diy version but I believe $25k. It does not include optional things like the clutch.
@Normal Guy Supercar thanks well it certainly gives some idea how much a manual must be worth over am f1 then, love the video, can't wait for next episodes
Dan, just an FYI, your address (I don't know if that's your home address) is showing when you first get on the computer. Maybe edit that out? Again, just an FYI. Brad
Ah thanks for the heads up. That's not my home address so I'm not worried
How much was the conversion kit?
All EAG
Can a 458 be converted?
No. You have to swap the transmission
The 458 has a dual clutch transmission designed for auto shifting.
The 430 is a robotized manual that just replaces the usual linkage actuation with electronics so it can be converted back to linkage shifting ala a manual.
Yeah if that was my car i couldnt or wouldnt watch that. Id have a heart attack! That’d be a 2 pack of CAMEL day forsure. 👍
Lol
