C30 S40 V50 Manual conversion $1200 ono

I'm highly interested if he is not

Thanks for the heads up (very appreciated) but I would prefer to keep it AWD. If I ever have to get the slush box POS rebuilt I would try and get all the slip tuned out of it (if at all possible) The stock auto tune is very much "all or nothing"; either relaxed throttle inputs mean lots of slip in 4th gear (from very low speed) and general shit feeling, or the alternative of quick throttle inputs to coax it into dropping down gears but then you have to let off the gas almost straight away. If it could just not engage 4th so early or at least drop to third without so much throttle, it would be way better.

So much digging in vida required to work out just what I have to replace in addition to the box to swap a m56 to m66 in a P2 S60... (with space ball shifter)

timbo;114294 wroteNo probs. Have you tried resetting the gearbox adaptions on vida? You should be able to get it to relearn the shift points so it's more suited to your accelerator inputs

Yes, tried a few times. Fluid is new, level correct etc.
Upshift adapts easily, down shifts were much trickier and maybe that's my problem.

Theres not heaps... If your S60's already a manual then most of the work is done, even the driveshafts are the same. You'll have to convert to dual mass flywheel, different clutch etc, you'll need a shifter from a 6 speed model (easily sourced from the UK, I do have a spare but I'm keeping it in case my 585,000 mile one that I currently have decides to break!)

No need to use a dual mass flywheel though. Only needs the clutch to match the box.
