R154 advice

Hello,

 

Could do with some help/guidance on a full r154 conversion. I’m not actively looking as super busy right now but one has popped up and I’m needing some help on price etc. The box is the one from the Chaser, which with my understanding is the better one. The deal also includes everything for mkiv conversion. The box has been professionally rebuilt with new seals/bearings.

 

I guess I’m trying to get a gauge on what I should pay

 

 

Any advice much appreciated.

 

Cheers👍

I've installed a few R154's into mkiv's. Bill normally comes to £2500-4000 depending on what box/clutch combo you go with. And if the car has been converted from an auto, and needs pedals/manual tunnel/dials etc.

 

Cars currently a manual. How many hours work would you say it is.

 

Cheers

If the car is already manual, and you have the correct parts for everything to bolt in place then it won't take longer than 3-4 hours to convert to R154. Other than having to change flywheel you basically follow the same procedure as changing a clutch on a W58/V160.

 

From experience, you get much less hassle using an R154 from a chaser that has a remote shifter, vs a MKIII box with extended shifters.
