The kit is $13k. If you want that drive in drive out service its going to cost you a few bucks. You are also paying for experience, these kits might sound easy to install, but in reality the set up of the linkage and the flashing of the ECUs are both something that needs someone who knows what they are doing. If you follow the conversion threads on the various forums its not uncommon for people to pay a lot of money and the car ends up getting messed up bad and in some cases well known Indy shops have left customers high and dry because they dont know how to fix their mistakes.
@@auwz66my concern is linkage needing adjustment. I don’t have a lift to take pics as a baseline. Also, 70% clutch under F1 vs manual will decrease the clutch faster? just more tests or car might not be driven as much?
Like the video. 😁 I noticed what looks like the "cat" right next to the cable adjustment. Is there a heat shield? Do the cables usually need adjusting after say, 200-300 miles or are they usually good after the 15-20 miles? Love the time lapse at the end. BTW, how's Josh's clutch issue coming along?
Nice work. I’m on the fence to buy my dream car in manual. 360 or 430. You seem to have more 430’s lately. Is it because there are more of them? Or you like the 430 more. Fantastic channel and work. Been following you since your early days of videos on your cars.
If you could only afford to own and do one conversion would you do a f430 or a 599 GTB? I am so on the fence on both cars. I am coming from a 993 C4s in manual....so I kinda want that manual
@@Optimus-Prime-Rib exactly, I don’t understand. The F1 is a far superior system, being much more fun to drive. From whatever reason original manuals have hugely inflated prices because they used to be rare (never understood that either). Matter of fact I would never have my F1 converted into manual.
7 1/2 hours ?? Thats fantastic work guys !!! That really is a beautiful spec....looks great from above in the time lapse, real nice
Yeah to be fair we still had a few things to button up the next day but that, went pretty fast
Thank you for making this video. It shows me that they’re just cars after all and not that scary.
Yes indeed!
Really nice, the 430 sound great.
Oh yes
Great video, and very nice F430! Any chance that you will be adding 599's to your manual-swap repertoire in the near future?
Yes we are working on that but it may be a little while
Love your work. You guys rock!!!
Thanks so much!
0:48 wow 20K 😮 13:13 sounds amazing 7:31 shift linkage 🤔

Clutch tends to last longer as a manual
did you use a local shop in TX to recondition your seat? I'd like to do the same at some point to my California
We have a guy...
@@normalguysupercar is he in TX?
@@dwattel yes
I can tell you and Josh are comfortable doing the conversions. You no longer play the classical music while doing the conversion.
Haha I still like that
that is a SMART decision!
Yup
Hi Dan, Josh, great work. I have a 360 F1, how do you sort the ECU for the conversion?
We have a tool to program it

There's no heat shield on the manuals. Josh's car is back in business
@@normalguysupercar Good to hear Josh's car is up and running. Did it turn out to be the flywheel?
@@garyleibitzke4166 we don't know if it was the clutch or flywheel because we replaced both. But it's happy now
Hey Dan, what scanner did you use to check the clutch life?
We use a launch x431 pro s3+ but many launch models can read it.
@@normalguysupercar thank you!
Are sales alittle slow lately?
First thing I noticed were the pristine seats before you mentioned that they were reconditioned.
Ah yes, they came out really good!

I personally like the 430 more but the 360s are great cars too
Question, where did you get that rolling chair, for under the lift, Thx
Amazon! amzn.to/4fSxjjG
@@normalguysupercar thx soooo much
Let’s convert it. Done! Let’s clean it. Done! Let’s drive it. Done! Then you showed it all at the end :)
Yeah
I’m about to do this to my CS. Wish I could do it that fast. Hahaha.
Nice!
i could have this wrong but i think i saw you yesterday at a random gas station with your gt40?
Exon at Williams and 3405. Yes.
NGS single handedly destroying the OEM 6 speed market one car at a time.
Good
Professional🤯
Thanks
Who makes the parts for the conversion?
Cambio Manuale.
This begs the question... is there any way to get a gateshifter into a 458?!
You have to change the transmission
Do you convert Gallardos for the same price?
We do not
By the 17:00 mark, the soundtrack turns into Fleetwood Mac's "Seven Wonders"...
Huh
@@normalguysupercar Listen to the opening of the song and you'll understand!
Dan. Can you do this on a 458?
No it has a DCT transmission
If you could only afford to own and do one conversion would you do a f430 or a 599 GTB? I am so on the fence on both cars. I am coming from a 993 C4s in manual....so I kinda want that manual
For sure 430.
@@normalguysupercar Thank you very much, will be reaching out for assistance with the conversion
Such a great spec car, and now with the uber mod....perfecto
Agreed!
What makes the 2008+ F430’s more difficult?
They don't have some of the factory holes and stuff like that.
wow, I am impressed.
Thanks!
Fab!
Thanks!
How bout you do an oil change, that's way more interesting 😅 like ur first one
Ah yes
That’s cool!
Thanks
That’s quick! (That’s what she said)
Lol I hate it when that happens
Can you convert a Maserati Gransport?
No
Are you planning on offering conversions for 575/599s in the future?
Possibly
How much is it to order the kit from you guys for a 360
At the moment we aren't really selling the kits alone, only with an installation.
How much 360 convert and clutch
@@jimjones1505 please email us. I don't like putting numbers in comments.

@@normalguysupercaroh gotcha you guys wouldn't order the parts for someone and up charge $1000 and ship it
@@JetskisAndDirtbikes Not at this time.
I want to convert my manual into a Ferrari
Haha that's harder and more expensive
I'm only watching this video in hopes of learning how to convert my Prius into a manual
You may be disappointed

There's a lot of reasons

There's a handful.
