Krutch Member 6 Member For: 16y 8m 18d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 28/08/08 10:32 AM Share Posted 28/08/08 10:32 AM Hi all,I need honest thoughts and help, as I dont know who to really talk about it. I have a BF F6 Tornado with the ZF6 auto box. I WANT MANUAL! Is this a big ask? Expensive? Anyone done it? AND...if so, is it worth replacing it with a standard F6 manual 6spd or are there after boxes. Ute is currently running 360rwkw, but going up soon.cheerz guys, ta Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/49142-zf6-has-to-go/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone raves about the ZF and how good it is!Im sure Mal Wood would be able to hook you up with a manual box, then its just a matter or reflashing the computer to tell it to stop changing gears I guess.....Wouldnt get much change from 8K im guessing.

These luxo sport barges are just not suited to a manual, as they are too heavy and need the auto to get them off the line in a hurry.
