Hello to all you gurus,
Just thinking out loud.
I have been thinking of downsizing and selling the Def90. With the S3 to get dirty, the Defender seems a little redundant and mainly gets used around Melbourne. I just love driving it though.
So, rather than sell it and buy a buzz box that will last 5 years, I am now thinking of converting it to a ZF Auto instead. (Makes traffic jams a little more pleasent)
So, given I haven't got the skills to do this conversion myself, how much would this cost..(Ball Park guess welcome ) and does anyone have any suggestion (in Melbourne) of someone that would be will to undertake this conversion.
Also any comments on fitting a ZF behind the Td5 would be welcome.

Range-Rov i Vic recently converted a D1 to Td5 and retained the hydraulically controlled autobox. (The vehicle was just sold damaged at auction in the NT) This would save a lot of mucking about as you need no trans ECU etc. It is as I understand a pretty easy conversion to a Defender Td5, comparitively, and would be a great result. Go for it! Ashtrans can help with more info no doubt.

Yikes! I was thinking maybe half that!

Have a chat with them. But that is what I was told for a Tdi Discovery - which would have been a straight swap using factory parts.
Bruce Davis from DPL has a ZF HP24ES with compu shift in a warmed TD5 90. He says the torque converter needs work for it to go well.

Well got some positive responses from Range-Rov - I'll have to pop in and have a chat.
Also got a reply form Dave Ashcroft re shipping some bits out from UK. [Nice exchange rate at the moment (52p = AU $1).]
Geez their website is cool - love the sound of the compushift setup.
The NAS console makes the conversion look very original.

Certainly looks the best setup Paul, that NAS console etc is a fantastic addition. If only I could find someone here willing to spend the $$$, I'd love to do a neat conversion like thatWell got some positive responses from Range-Rov - I'll have to pop in and have a chat.

Call me conservative but thats the way I wanted to go with the touring rig
