'manual' rs6
hello,
Anyone heard of a manual converted RS6? Or at least a RS6 engine mated to a manual transmission?

That was dave freemans car. It's still not finished ....Balchy wrote:QST had a black saloon on the ramps when I visited middle of last year. I don't think they had done the conversion. Had some very big black carbon-like wheels, and it was about to get ceramic brakes.

Nice grizz.... is it a 6 speed from rs4?
sorry for more questions... has anyone seen a complete rs6 engine from breaking car for sale? how much would it go for?
talking about the rs6 engine specifically ie. excluding drc problems and some auto. transmission problems, is the engine quite a reliable unit? any major issues, like the worn down cams trouble with the rs4?
thanks

Might be a silly question, but wouldn't an S6 manual box do the trick?

I'd be interested in trying if my gearbox gives up the ghost. Turns out I much prefer manuals. Had to have a tiptronic to realise that though.
