FOR SALE (finally): 6 Speed 01E Adapter Kit for the C5 RS6

[Avus-RS6]

I stand corrected, SB stage 3 in my car. I had this clutch also in my first B5 S4 and it did not hold power for long when I went ASP stage 3. Probably fine if you plan on keeping the power in your RS6 stock but why would you do that?

Good stuff, clutchnet.com.

Update. No more kits available for immediate delivery. I have one partial kit that I can complete and deliver in 1-2 weeks. After that one is gone, it's going to be at least 4 weeks lead time after receiving a deposit since I'm currently in discussions with a new flywheel manufacturer.

[SteveKen]

More steel flywheels are finally being produced.

Therefore, more of the kits (adapter, flywheel, starter, hardware, instructions) will be in stock by the end of August.

Adapters are on their third revision, which should facilitate easier removal of the 01E with the turbos installed. (the overall width of the adapter is about .75 in narrower)

The flywheels are on their third revision, too, and are only recommended for use with the adapter.

Still $2100.

what changes were done to the flywheel?

[SteveKen]

what changes were done to the flywheel?

It's thicker by 2.2mm to match the added thickness of the adapter.

[SteveKen]

Finally received the new steel flywheels. The kits are now have a 1 or 2 week delivery time.

Hi Steve. Do these steel flywheels differ from the old ones? I still haven't gotten around to installing mine...

[Korben007]

do you get the flywheels bolts or what do you use for those?

[kevin]

Korben, the flywheel comes with bolts.

[SteveKen]

do you get the flywheels bolts or what do you use for those?

The 10 flywheel bolts (socket head cap screws) are included.

What are not included are the 6 screws that attach the pressure plate to the flywheel. Going off memory, I want to say that they're M6 x 15 but not 100% sure.

Here's my back of the envelope list. I recently bought all the pieces to convert my S6 so it's pretty fresh in my mind.

My kit is $2100 plus shipping and includes the adapter, Tilton starter w/ custom nose, steel flywheel, hardware and instructions.
The tune through AMD is $750 (which requires you send them your ECU for the flash)
Clutch & Pressure Plate $700 - $1500

junkyard obtained items: ( or $2500 through www.audis4parts.com)

01E Transmission w/ brackets from B5 S4 or C5 A6 2.7T $200 - $4000 C5 A6 2.7T
C5 A6 2.7T Front axles $150/ pr
C5 A6 2.7T Driveshaft $200
B5 S4 or C5 A6 2.7T Pedal Assembly w/ switches and clutch master cyl $75
B5 S4 or C5 A6 2.7T Shifter & linkages $75

The rear diff does not need to be changed.

The RS6 trans mounts must also be used as they are about 10mm taller than the 2.7T ones.

Custom wiring involves making a reverse switch circuit, wiring in the neutral safety switch to the starter interlock relay and wiring the clutch vent valve switch to the ECU.

The current software requires swapping the dry side of the ABS controller to a C5 S6 or W8 Passat unit. I've seen them for anywhere from $100 to $250. Further refinements of the code might eliminate the need for this though.

ok, just wanted to sum things up:
adaptor kit - $2100
clutch - $1500 (don't want to skimp here)
axles, driveshaft, clutch pedal assy and shifter, 01E transmission: $2500
Torsen center diff - $550 (optional but sounds like it would be a very nice addition!)
ECU tune for functional ABS, etc - $750
30 hours labor@$100/hour - $3000

about $10,400 for complete swap...say $10K~11K.
$7000 minus the Torsen diff and self-installed.

Not a small chunk of change but in the realm of modifying cars, pretty cheap actually.

PP to flywheel bolts are M8x16

OEM p/n is N 014 739 11

You'll need 6 of them

[SteveKen]

I'm currently out of stock with these. The next batch of kits will be available 4 weeks after receiving full payment on the next order. Please PM me for any details.

[Turbowned]

I'll be looking to get one of these in the upcoming months. First step is to acquire a donor 6MT car, which I think I have a lead on.

[SteveKen]

I will have inventory for three more kits after July 1.

Not sure if I will produce any more after these three are sold since it's a lot of inventory to sit on in order for the reasonable pricing with min qty of 5 flywheels and 10 adapters at a pop....

[qracing]

whether you can get through the adapter sets the RS6 bcy / 01e gearbox? intended to put the c4 avant. if there is, what is the price.

[ksung]

I am thinking for convert my 04 RS6 to MT. Is your kits still available ?
