Homer Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Any particular reason why you're so 'Anti' Silverstone garage at the moment? Anti-QSD, god no! Not sure why you would think that at all mate! I completely forgot, had a lot else on my mind this last week so not been much use on the forum... Oh and for the record, QSD are a great source for the conversion too They have a lot of happy customers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jezz Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 jezz do you do the tt swap ? if so how much ? Yep. Pretty much one a week at the mo. Depends what sort of spec you want. £1500 ish up to £3500 ish. All warranted, new belts/pumps ect. Thanks mate. Can you give us a rough price mate? As above.

The Raven Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Jezz do you still offer the use of another car while the work is being carried out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Is that the going rate now? Means I'm much closer than I thought! Might go single instead! Might be able to do you a good deal on a NA to 6spd single conversion as my single will be for sale soon:eyebrows: We even give you a loan car while we do yours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 With a single and 6spd conversion on the cards I agree 100% here Dean. The cost to convert an NA to a singled 6spd (done right) will be far more than it costs to buy one that is already done to a nice specification. Don't agree on that one dude!!!!

tooquicktostop Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Don't agree on that one dude!!!! What would AFR / Dude charge for an NA Auto to 6 speed single all done then, ready to go I guess you are talking second hand single kit Cant see it coming in with labour any less done right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_b Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 bet you wish you never sold yours mate..it was a stunner Still getting counselling to be honest ... as am I for not buying that completely stock cheap red TT6 from Southampton. It would have made a perfect upgrade from my stock NA, but I did nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are sdaying the NA is worth £3K it can easily be done, come in cheaper and you will know what has been done and how it was done. Would the customer look for parts himself ie used ecu etc??

No need to work it out for me, I would never do it Pauls car is £12,995 now with a new single kit The point I was making really is that for a full and comprehensive NA Auto to Single 6 Speed with good power level (500 ish) then you will spend as much as buying a respected complete single, I am sure AFR would be no cheaper for the same spec I am sure you could cut corners and get it done cheaper (not suggesting you/AFR would recommend that!!) but then that defeates the object really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_SZ-R Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Didnt realise I could have a TT conversion done from £1500! I had a figure of £2K+ in mind for the conversion. I would just be after a stock TT engine to start with, and see if thats quick enough. Should be fairly quick seeing as I already have a 6 speed box fitted...
