Description:

I was planning to convert my 2006 XKR to manual transmission, I collected all the parts but the vendor that had promised to sort out the ECU issues could not. I have decided to abandon the project, cut my losses and sell the parts at my cost.

The kit is:

1)  6 speed manual transmission form a 2.7 S-type diesel. This is a ZF S6-53 transmission and what makes it attractive is that it has the same bolt pattern as the Jaguar v8, so the transmission bolts to the engine with no adaptor plate. The transmission is rated for 450 lb ft of torque so can handle the 400 lb ft produced by the XKR. The S-Type 2.7 diesel was never imported into the USA. I sourced a transmission in the UK and had it shipped over. This may be the only transmission of this type in the USA. I fitted a new clutch salve cylinder and changed the oil. the 2006 XKR had the ZF6HP26 automatic transmission based on my measurements this is the same length and has the same output shaft bolt pattern as the manual ZF transmission so no modifications to the prop shaft. This may not be true for other models.

2)      New Custom flywheel – this was sourced from Tom Lenthal Jaguar in the UK

3)      Original auto flex plate – using this ensures engine speed sensors are triggered

4)      New Mcleod clutch and pressure plate  

5)      Custom Manual pedal box with master cylinder and reservoir. This uses a modified auto plastic pedal box with a Wilwood master cylinder and Jaguar clutch pedal. When fitted the master cylinder does not protrude through the plastic windshield scuttle. The hole in the bodywork for the pedals needs to be enlarged slightly to allow the clutch pedal to be fitted. A modified version of the original XKR brake pedal is used so no changes the brake light switch are required. This works with the 4 bolt servo, I believe some early cars had a 3 bolt servo so some modifications would be required alternatively believe a late model 1995/6 XJS manual pedal box could be used here, Part number MHF53722AA. Modifications would also be required for a XJ8 or XJR

Shipping will be at cost with the transmission strapped to a pallet, The other parts can be shipped UPS
