I've created a thread on InfinitiQ60.org (https://www.infinitiq60.org/threads/infiniti-q60-3-0t-6mt-conversion.19453/) dedicated to How-To for a 6 speed manual conversion on a 2017 Infiniti Q60 Red Sport 400 (3.0T). This could be helpful for the Q50 as well. However, there have already been more Q50s converted than VR30 Q60s (only 2 so far)
I purchased this vehicle with the intent to do this 6MT swap. Previously, I have owned a 2003 Infiniti G35 6MT and a 2008 G37 6MT. I was very interested in the increased performance on the Red Sport 400 (3.0T), but put off by the automatic transmission (just my personal preference). I followed the development from Concept Z's 6MT swap and hoped to see them commercialize this conversion. Covid happened and CZP did not release a kit or any further information.
Therefore, I have figured out the details and would like to share them for anyone else interested in this conversion on a 2017+ Infiniti Q60. One benefit to the delay is the availability of parts from the 2023+ Nissan Z. I decided to use the trans and clutch from the new Z. Also, the same EDM (European) Q50 sedan manual interior console parts fit the USDM Q60 (coupe), as they do the USDM Q50 (sedan). In total (not including the research), this took 50 hours to complete. I had a local driveshaft shop modify my driveshaft. The full parts list is below. Also, a special thanks too the following who offered their support:
Jim Kelly @ S&P Automotive
Jeff Roberts
Nick Letsom & Coz @ Concept Z Performance
Jake & Miles Compton @ AMS Performance
Z1 Motorsports
Minh Nguyen
Loreto Deuz
Tristan Klein
